Uganda Telecom Limited; one of the leading telecommunication and internet service providers in Uganda has
"kasana": The Solar powered phone on market in Uganda. Uganda Telecom is the distributor.
introduced the new Solar-powered mobile phone. This Coral-200-Solar cell phone is manufactured by ZTE.
Uganda Telecom has officially nicknamed it “Kasana” (luganda word meaning sun) as it’s promotional/ brand name. The integrated solar charger charges the internal battery thus enabling this phone to power up with the use of solar energy.
This phone is anticipated to reduce on the digital divide gap in Uganda. The issue of limited/ lack of electricity lines and power irregularities in many rural areas of Uganda is one of the major reasons as to why many people can’t afford mobile phones today. Electricity bills remain very high for people to afford.
There is still need for many more such technologies (affordable and cheap to maintain) in Uganda to connect the remote communities and rural poor.
This phone not only lowers electricity consumption in poverty stricken countries like Uganda but also environment friendly.
Thank you Uganda Telecom for your continued efforts to connect my Uganda to the world!

to date, solar panels which generate more than 100Watts are still expensive but hopefully they are getting cheaper each day ~
mobile phones that have built in cameras are my favorite because they can capture those special moments and events “-~
i could only wish that solar panels cost only several hundred dollars, i would love to fill my roof with solar panels *~”
Solar cells are the basic component of any active system used to convert sunlight into a form of energy. Traditionally, solar cells were used as the key part of panel systems that generated electricity or heat for homes. These days, the technology is used in a wide variety of applications, which means the style of solar cells vary per application.’
