LAGAZEL has designed high quality portable solar lamps that are adapted to the needs of various populations and are accessible to the greatest number of people.

If the solar panel is exposed to sunlight during the day, the lamp will function all night, and the light will stay bright, year after year. With its multiple functions, the lamp provides excellent lighting in your living area and a reading mode for students, and can be used as a flashlight. Its format is designed for use by people who do not have access to electricity, whether occasionally (moving around out of doors, camping trips or nature trips), or permanently (a great majority of the African population has to deal with a non-existent or faulty electrical supply).

Developing second hand battery packs in the off-grid energy sector

There is currently no infrastructure to support li-ion battery recycling in sub-Saharan Africa.  Logistical complexity and associated costs make it difficult for solar distributors and recyclers to send batteries abroad. As a result, companies store stockpiles of Li-ion batteries at their end-of-life. On top of that, battery operation is dependent on the weakest cell in the pack, if one cell fails, the whole battery pack fails and is considered non-functional. Currently, companies discard all battery cells when the product reaches its end-of-life (EoL).
