To showcase the potential of solar technology, GIZ/EnDev has equipped a car with solar panels, a projector, a popcorn machine and a freezer. During the day, the panels on the car provide energy for the freezer and the popcorn machine. At night, educational and entertaining movies can be shown while solar lamps on the car allow visitors to read the information displayed on the vehicle.

The car has been used for various roadshows, exhibitions and other events. During the Renewable Energy Fair at Gbarnga in April 2017, the GIZ/EnDev “Solar car” showed movies, broadcasted a radio talk show about the fair and its products, and informed as well as entertained visitors with music, popcorn and information.

Solar product retailers or NGOs interested in organizing promotional activities outside Monrovia and in the EnDev solar promotion car can contact GiZ/EnDev.
