Videoseries on the ALFA project

In 2008 Philips donated free of charge a large number of its new Solar Uday systems to vulnerable families in the north of Ghana as part of the Affordable Lighting For All project (ALFA). These systems are distributed by a local NGO - (Non Governmental Organization) called New Energy.
