Kingo Energy, founded in 2013 and based in Guatemala City, specializes in manufacturing solar energy systems. The company addresses the critical lack of access to energy and connectivity in developing regions, particularly in Guatemala and Colombia, where approximately 1 billion people remain without modern energy services. As a technology startup restructured in 2022, Kingo provides affordable clean energy solutions to off-the-grid communities, serving around 700 areas with a total population of 250,000, primarily subsistence-level farmers. Kingo's systems are designed to operate in remote locations where conventional infrastructure is impractical. By leveraging internet-of-things (IoT) technology, the company enhances access to essential services like education and healthcare, while also enabling local businesses to expand their reach. Through the installation and maintenance of renewable energy systems, Kingo facilitates the use of appliances that boost productivity and income-generating opportunities for its users.
