What is SharedSolar?
• It’s a SMART renewable energy micro-
grid
•Platform that allows aggregation of
services and infrastructure via Smart meters
Features
•Pre-paid electricity via mobile pone and
local data network
•Control and monitoring of electricity
production and demand
•Investments based on demand are
competitive, verifiable and gradual
