It's the fastest expansion of solar power ever, says the government of Bangladesh: From 7,000 households in 2002 to 1 million in 2011. Ninety million of Bangladesh's 150 million people have no access to electricity at all, so access to small-scale solar is transformative for this population.

This is great. I recall reading an article not to long ago how they were using something like this to power cell phones in remote areas and thought it a terrific idea.
