Youth Generates Income Through Electricity

Unlike the prevailing mode where customers purchase electricity over the counter, Bailelwang's company, LowePower, is an on-line service for the buying and selling of power and mobile phone airtime at discounted rates."I was studying computer engineering at the College and unfortunately I dropped out in 2010," he told Business Monitor.

"But this did not discourage me and I realised that I could use the time to develop an idea that I initially had in 2007. I realised that the idea could solve my unemployment while also helping people save the time they spend queuing for prepaid power."According to the young entrepreneur, to use the system, a customer has to be registered with LowePower and the technology will work on any phone that has an Internet connection.
