Solar street lighting technology became very efficient thanks to better solar panels and energy efficiency of LED bulbs. In African countries, solar street lights are a better solution than conventional street lights due to the following conditions:

• There is an electricity shortage in the national grid of many African countries. Installing conventional street lights could amplify this shortage.
• The solar street lights do not require infrastructures such as connection to the national grid or regular maintenance. Solar street lights are very easy to install and operate.
• The governments and international organizations invest a huge amount of money for renewables. There are many government incentives for the installation of renewable technologies in daily life.

To invest in the solar street light business, African businesspeople should make an arrangement with a solar street light manufacturer. Then, they acquire training on how to install them. They can bid on national tenders or alternatively, they can install solar led street lights on private premises such as residential sites, factories, warehouses, recreational areas, etc.
