THE PROBLEM There are over 7,000 islands in the Philippines and most of these

islands do not have access to electricity. We want to eliminate the

sustaining cost in areas that rely on kerosene/battery powered lamps

and candles as their main source of lighting.

HOW IT STARTED It all started in the mountains of Kalinga, Philippines...

Butbut Tribe in Kalinga

THE STORY The tribal village located up in the mountains of Kalinga rely on

kerosene lamps as their main source of lighting. They have to refill the

lamp with kerosene every other day. The nearest town to get supplies

is about 50 km away, and they cannot afford to pay for public

transporation – instead they walk 12 hours to get kerosene so they

could have some light on moonless nights.

She is a living testament as to how much effort they

need to exert to have some light to work with at night.

COST EFFECTIVE

Sustaining cost of SALt lamps is a fraction compared with kerosene

and battery-powered lamps.

Page 15: [Startup Nations Summit 2014] Competition - Philippines

Battery = P54 every 5 days = P3942 Kerosene = P40 every 2 days = P7300

SALt = P384 • P7 every month (Pack of salt)

• P300 every 6 months (Anode rod)
