In the US solar is a great option to switch to in order to save some money on solar power. We put it on our house for social status, or in a hope it will aid in the health and well-being of those to come. However, in other parts of the world the need for solar is a lot different. In many countries the availability of electric through infrastructure is non-existent,  making solar a necessity to further the well-being of citizens. 

For many people in 3rd world countries with 0 power infrastructure.  Microgrids are the answer. Countries like Pakistan and Nigeria and jumping on this renewable resource like never before. Sales of rooftop solar and mini micro grid systems to these two countries alone was over $276 million in 2016, with the major investor being China.
