MALI-ECONOMY-ENERGY

TO GO WITH AFP STORY BY SEBASTIEN RIEUSSEC Students attend evening classes with a mobile solar-powered streetlamp named by locals as "Foroba Yelen", in the Bambara language, at the village of Sanogola in the Segou region, northeast of Bamako, on April 25, 2014. Mobile solar-powered streetlamps made from old bicycle parts are transforming lives in Mali, where villagers often work by night to escape the heat despite 90 per cent having no mains electricity. The project is the brainchild of Italian architect Matteo Ferroni, who visited the Segou region, in 2010 and noticed the locals were mainly sleeping during the searing day and getting up in the evening to work.
