SR-1563B Small, off-grid energy sources in rural and other unconnected areas are not particularly new, but people are beginning to take advantage of the green economy by turning their lack of government-provided energy into an entrepreneurial opportunity. Local communities can generate new sources of vitality, resilience, and independence by leveraging lightweight clean energy and water solutions and fostering individual enterprise based on these goals. 3 7 | Peer-to-Peer energy Sales | Future Innovation © 2013 Institute for the Future for Rockefeller Foundation.

4. When taken on their own, many of the individual ideas from the game represent a tiny potential fix to a systemic issue: access to energy and water. But when gathered together they paint a powerful picture of a future in which each community or household can draw from a plethora of solutions in order to maintain its own energy needs and build up local economies. Some player ideas pushed the limits of this innovation to provide income sources for nomadic homeless communities or revenue for schools. 4 7 | Peer-to-Peer Energy Sales | From the Players © 2013 Institute for the Future for Rockefeller Foundation.

SR-1563B 16 Solar Sisters combines the breakthrough potential of solar technology with a deliberately woman-centered direct sales network to bring both light and income to even the most remote communities in rural Africa. Homeless Wireless Hotspots Mirroring the potential of peer-to- peer energy sales, during the 2012 SXSW festival, a marketing firm teamed up with a homeless shelter to transform homeless individuals into 4G wireless hotspots. The project has produced much controversy. 7 | Peer-to-Peer Energy Sales | Signals from the Present Solar Sisters Image Source: http://instagram.com/p/IArj17NxFM/http://instagram.com/p/IArj17NxFM/ Image Source: www.solarsister.orgwww.solarsister.org
