Since the early 2000s, Sierra Leone has been experiencing rapid economic growth, and its energy consumption has risen by 65% (Awoko, 2017), but the existing energy systems in the country are still underdeveloped. .

Approximately 89% of the population in Sierra Leone lacks access to electricity or gas. Firewood and charcoal are commonly used for light and heat, but they are also known to be sources of air and water pollution, as well as respiratory issues.
Despite the large number of energy development projects, over 89% of the Sierra Leone population faces energy deficiency (Vanguard, 2019). In Jalloh Terrace, the local community in the western rural district, firewood and charcoal were the only sources of light and heat for students studying or families cooking food.
Street lighting is important in Sierra Leone because it makes the area safer and allows businesses to stay open later. The 20-year-old start-up, Thoronka, also aims to educate people in Sierra Leone about the environmental impacts of energy use, so that they can use their power efficiently and conservatively.
Sierra Leone's energy consumption has risen by 65% since the early 2000s (Awoko, 2017) but the existing energy systems in the country are still underdeveloped and unable to meet the high energy demand.
The electricity infrastructure in Sierra Leone is outdated and needs to be updated, as even those connected to the grid can't rely on the power due to frequent power cuts.
This start-up is focusing on Sierra Leone, a country where only 26 percent of the overall population and just six percent of people in rural areas have access to electricity, according to the Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL). For most people living in Sierra Leone, the opposite is true.
