Five years ago, Patrick Sherwin, founder of GoSun Stove, came across his first Nokero solar lantern, while working to electrify a rural village in Haiti. Retailing at less than $10 USD, the solar lanterns served a profound need for families living off dirty and hazardous kerosine for their primary lighting source. In the following months he helped distribute thousands and saw first hand the power of these lights to change lives.
Nokero's Impact
Nokero (meaning No Kerosene) was founded to address a major problem facing the 1.3 billion people on Earth using kerosene and candles as their primary lighting sources. With more than a million people dying each year in fires caused by their lamps, solar lanterns are not only safer; they also give children extra hours to study, parents extra time to generate income and save a substantial amount of money for the poorest of the poor. (The cost of a N233 is equivalent to the monthly fuel expenses for a family of four.) Using disruptive green innovation, Nokero is making a massive impact globally, with more than 1.4 million units sold to date, primarily in developing countries.
