Wilfred’s Why MOPO

“Why Am I Here at MOPO?

At MOPO, I'm not just an employee; I'm part of a mission-driven company transforming lives across Sub-Saharan Africa. We are addressing one of the most pressing challenges in the region of reliable access to clean, affordable energy. Every day, millions of people struggle to power their homes and small businesses due to the lack of a stable grid. At MOPO, we’ve taken a ground-breaking approach to solve this with our pay-per-use battery technology and battery rental services.

I'm here because I'm part of something bigger.

Our work doesn’t just provide energy, empowers communities. By working at MOPO, you contribute directly to expanding access to affordable, sustainable energy, enabling families to power their homes, businesses to thrive, and children to study after dark. Our roles, whether in operations, engineering, executive, and so on, play a critical part in helping provide life changing solutions to communities that need it most.

I'm here because I believe in innovation.

We’re not just in the energy business; we’re in the business of creating lasting impact through cutting-edge solutions. MOPO’s battery rental service is more than a product; it’s a platform that bridges the gap between energy and financial inclusion. By integrating payment solutions like Mobile Money and using innovative technologies to streamline our services, we’re reshaping the way people access power and improve their lives.

I'm here because I am driving change.

At MOPO, every action an individual takes moves us one step closer to the company's vision of a future where energy poverty is a thing of the past. I'm here because I want to be part of that change. At MOPO, whether you’re on the ground in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Nigeria, DRC, Chad, Uganda or the UK helping establish MOPO hubs or working behind the scenes to improve operations, products etc. Your efforts directly contribute to building a more sustainable and inclusive energy landscape.

I'm here at MOPO because my work matters, and together, we’re making a difference.”
