Fetching firewood is a risky and time-consuming job for women. This project will provide solar electrified bakeries for 250 rural women in Ethiopia thereby create self-reliant and self-sufficient income, employment. Besides reducing women's' health risks and deforestation, the project helps to eliminate energy poverty for rural poor women.
