The Bright Lights for Benin project will catalyse the PAYG solar market in Benin by linking Greenlight Planet PAYG products with a ready-made solar supply chain. The project builds on a successful 18 month partnership between SNV and MTN to develop a solar distribution network. It introduces PAYG solar to Benin for the first time and expects to sell 9,000 PAYG products over 18 months via sustainable business model. The government of Benin has  agreed to provide tax exemption on all products imported under the project.
