One Degree Solar (ODS) is a venture-backed technology company that designs, manufactures, and distributes energy solutions that improve access to power and connectivity in Africa. ODS was created to meet the needs of the hundreds of millions of households and small businesses that demand reliable access to energy. For low-income households and small businesses that are forced to rely on candles, kerosene, batteries and other polluting energy sources for lighting and power, ODS has developed BrightBox, an affordable, solar-powered battery kit that powers smartphones, tablets, radios, lights, and virtually any USB device. Conventional alternatives in the micro-solar market require specialized tools, training, and spare parts, making after-sales support difficult and expensive for both suppliers and customers. Unlike traditional suppliers, ODS has integrated an open-source design philosophy and mobile-based customer service into each step of its value chain, providing an unprecedented customer experience that drives lasting and widespread customer adoption.
