iEnergy was born out of the founders vision to give back to the land of his forefathers. What better way then to give the gift of light to the hundreds of thousands living without access to electricity?
How it began
The clean energy and sustainability enthusiast had a light bulb moment while pondering why there were so many people without electricity in Sri Lanka and why they weren't utilising clean, affordable solar lanterns given the ridiculous amount of sun they had.
Through months of research and product testing in his back garden in London's, he came up with a social enterprise model, and Infinite Energy/ iEnergy was born.
It's aim: to empower people and lift them out of poverty through of one of the most abundant resources, solar power, and simultaneously eradicating the use of dangerous kerosene lamps.
What differentiates iEnergy from charities and traditional businesses is that we are hybrid, We don’t just donate or just make profits, we do both. How this works is that we donate the majority of our profits to less fortunate rural households that live without electricity and cannot afford our solar lanterns.
