What does it mean to live
without electricity?
Electricity changes everything — it powers our days and brightens our nights, both at work and at home.
Hindered education and health
Less money for schooling and healthcare due to lower income.
Limited business hours
No capacity to conduct commercial activities after dusk.
Short shelf-life of goods
Inability to refrigerate products, causing perishables to spoil quickly.
