Before you put in your application, and a franc for electricity, you will be less dissatisfied if you knew more about alternative sources of renewable energy rather than learning about it the hard way afterwards.

To help you get the facts absolutely straight, Joseph Laissin Mailong has been at the heart of looking for solutions to power problems for over eight years. He is not re-inventing the wheel, but he has not only been installing clean solar energy systems and wind turbines. He has also invented an inverter that converts wind turbine generated power to 230 volts alternating power (AC)
Mailong also manufactures solar lamps at the cost of next to nothing.
Mr. Windpower is the brain behind Nature Power Engineering – an enterprise based in Buea, South West Region. It deals mainly in renewable energy – powered by solar, wind and biogas. Nature Power Engineering installs solar systems and wind turbines of all sizes and biogas systems as well as micro-hydroelectricity at affordable prices.
In its eight years of existence, Mailong has installed several solar panels, wind turbines, solar water heaters and micro-hydroelectricity systems in remote areas not connected to the national grid such as Bakassi in Ndian Division, Takamanda in Manyu Division in the South West and other very remote rural areas in the North West Region.
Besides installing renewable energy devices, Mailong has also manufactures rechargeable solar lamps from scrap materials; all geared towards popularizing eco-friendly energy use which is clean, non-polluting, economical, sustainable, safe and consequently mitigating climate change. Mailong won a prize for innovating renewable energy sources at the 2014 Nuclear-Free Future Award given by the Nuclear-Free Future Award Foundation in Munich, Germany.
