Jiro-VE believes access to clean energy is a basic right no matter what your purchasing power is. To accomplish universal energy access Jiro-VE has developed a model which centers around providing energy as a service. What this means is that our members receive a fully recharged clean energy product which is delivered to their doorstep every day. For this service our members pay half of what they used to pay for a candle that would emit smoke, create a great risk for fire and give very little light.

With our clean energy products we change our members their lives for the better empowering them with better security, cleaner and safer houses and additional business opportunities.

Our own very story of Jiro-VE is a reflection of what it means to start a business with little resources and scaling it over time. In Madagascar there is no lack of entrepreneurship but the opportunities to scale their operations are often hampered by lack of education, access to capital and products of poor quality. As Jiro-VE we have developed into the immense potential the human capital provides giving local entrepreneurs the opportunity to flourish and prosper.

How we accomplish this is by deploying an unique franchise model which on one hand relies on the local entrepreneur to find the customers and have a shared passion for impact with us. While on the other hand as Jiro-VE we provide the support with high quality solar equipment, training and continuous follow up to ensure our franchisees can reach their maximum potential while earning a great and stable income doing so.

To ensure future generations will benefit of the advantages of clean energy Jiro-VE has partnered up with local and international NGO to electrify schools. Often these schools lack access to high quality educational materials and students need to do their homework by candlelight. When a school is electrified children can watch educational videos on the screens installed in the classrooms and have proper light in the classroom during the class.

Once the classes are finished the same solar-system that powers the school has been used to recharge solar lanterns which the schoolchildren can take home and use to do their homework. This model ensure both at school as at home both the students as their parents get to benefit of the advantages of clean energy.

Given that the school is the place where a new generation is educated it is of the greatest importance to teach about the importance of preserving the environment and what role they can play especially in Madagascar which holds one of the richest biodiversity in the world. Ensuring the school uses clean energy is a vital first step in this process.
