| SolarHome | SolarHome (www.solar-home.asia) is the pioneer in Pay-As-You-Go (“PAYG”) Solar for off-grid households in Southeast Asia. SolarHome installs integrated solar energy and appliance units in customers’ homes, and offers radically affordable “rent-to-own” plans of energy service subscription. This dramatically lowers the barriers to adoption of solartechnology by the bottom-of-pyramid clients. SolarHome is delivering a significant social impact in its addressable market of 27 million households across Southeast Asia living outside of the electric grid. Headquartered in Singapore, SolarHome presently operates in Myanmar. SolarHome was seeded and developed by FORUM, the largest fintech venture builder in Emerging Asia. | $10M | Debt Financing | Dec 05, 2018 |  |
