Moon ESIO™

Deploy solar home systems as a service, with one solution

Moon ESIO™ is the end-to-end solution to deploy and operate Solar Home Systems as a Service programmes at scale. So a programme can grow from a few villages to an entire country.

Moon Energy System™. Operated. Repairable. Connected.

A solar home system designed to be operated, repaired and redeployed.

Discover Moon Energy System™
Essential energy, first
A first level of energy access for the households that classic sales and credit models leave behind: light, phone charging and security, paid as a service.
Built to be operated
Repairable by design: battery, ports, PCB and screen are replaced in the field, not the whole system. Designed for 10 years of intensive daily use.
Key features
38.4 Wh LiFePO4 battery and 12 W solar panel. Two 200-lumen hanging lamps, a motion-sensing security lamp and a fast-charging USB port. Bluetooth link to Moon IO™, PAYGo and mobile money.

Moon Boost. More power. More appliances.

An extension that adds power when households need more.

How it works

From the first map to a running rural utility.

By combining our solar home system technology, proprietary smart platform, and the best operational processes, we deliver an end-to-end energy solution, to serve underserved customers sustainably.

  1. 01 / 05

    Plan the territory

    Before a single system is installed, Moon IO™ maps population, road access, existing infrastructure and demand signals. AI-assisted clustering turns a territory into zones, priorities and a phased rollout plan.

    Deploy the systems

    Moon Energy System™ units are installed zone by zone, following the plan. Each system is eco-designed, repairable in the field and registered in Moon IO™ at installation, linked to a household, a site and an operator.

    Train the local operator

    Field technicians, call-centre and management teams are trained on the job and equipped with Moon IO™ Mobile and Care. Training is built into daily operations, so local teams run the programme themselves.

    Collect payments, monitor every system

    Households pay for the energy service, not for the equipment. Moon IO™ tracks every payment, every system and every field visit in real time, online or offline, and alerts teams before a problem turns into a lost customer. Illustrative data.

    Run and grow the utility

    After-sales service, field repairs and data-driven programme reviews keep systems running and customers paying for years. Each new zone reuses the same tools, teams and processes: this is how a programme becomes a rural utility.

Step 01 / 05

Our model

Energy-as-a-Service, operated like a utility.

Moon pioneered Energy-as-a-Service for off-grid households. Four principles make it work at scale.

Households pay for energy, not equipment

Families pay a small, regular fee for a reliable energy service. Because the service only earns when the system works, maintenance and repair are built into the model, not left to the customer.

Data-driven, from first map to every payment

Moon IO™ tracks every system, payment and field visit in real time, online or offline. Operators act before problems escalate, and governments and funders see the service actually delivered, not just the number of installations.

Infrastructure that moves with the grid

Energy-as-a-Service turns solar home systems into viable infrastructure. Because the operator keeps ownership of the systems, they can be uninstalled and redeployed to unconnected households as the national grid arrives. Nothing is lost when the line comes in.

Universal access, and a gateway to more energy

Every household gets a first level of service now. Each month of use builds trust, payment history and field presence: the foundation for productive uses and higher levels of service as needs and incomes grow.
