We’re pleased to bring you the latest footage from our end user entrepreneurs in Western Kenya. Our partners at World Vision Kenya asked the bakers from Afmago Misire Bakery and the Koptige Women’s Group to share their thoughts on their experiences baking with sunlight over the past year.
Misire is using the Lytefire Oven to bake since 2017 thanks to sponsorship from Wärtsilä and Koptige since two years now. For Koptige, it’s always the chief baker speaking. Indeed, David Chepkowny is a very convinced solar entrepreneur, fluent in English and the additional Lytefire Oven his group got since last year will give a good boost.
I’m so thrilled to see our vision for a solar economy becoming a reality. Look how the corn grows right up to the Lytefire Oven, using maximum sunlight!
The groups are reporting significant positive impact as well as increased esteem in their communities. They’re very proud to have been featured in one of the national newspapers:

Thanks to Autodesk Foundation, we’re busy planning new innovations and features that our solar bakers have recommended.
We’re really grateful for everyone in Kenya and everything they do to document and share how reliable, safe and affordable it is to go solar with Lytefire Oven.
