A SolarTurtle is a small or micro for-profit business operating close or inside a poor or rural community to provide the same services as a standard utility provider. Unlike standard utilities, SolarTurtles rely on renewable energy (RE) to generate the electricity sold to their customers. The Solar Turtle was one of the 2014 Climate Solver South Africa winners. This video was commissioned by WWF South Africa and produced by Substance Films.
