Abstract

One in seven people globally lack access to electricity, with the majority located in rural communities in Africa and other parts of the developing world. For incumbent utility companies, building power grids is an expensive proposition, especially in remote, sparsely populated areas. As a result, over 600M people still rely on liquid kerosene to meet their basic energy needs. 

To bring affordable clean energy to remote areas, Liquidstar is developing a new category of energy solutions that use modular solar-powered smart batteries that can be distributed to those in need. The batteries run on a decentralized protocol that makes it easy to buy and sell energy through a smart contract, enabling a simple autonomous utility loop.

Learning Objectives

Learn how Liquidstar is building affordable energy solutions for communities without access to the power grid.
Explore how Web3-enabled business models make it possible to provide electricity in remote areas where traditional utilities have failed.
Understand Chainlink’s role in helping to enable sustainable energy solutions.
