Since mobile phones are an integral part of our lives nowadays, Digicel proved they are an amazing lot by partnering with Chinese Manufacture ZTE and Dutch-based technology innovator Intivation to provide an ultra-low-cost solar-powered mobile phone - The Digicel Coral-200-Solar. This is the company’s way of "pioneering green technology". The aim of the project, the statement said, was to target subscribers with limited or no access to electricity. The charger - when exposed to sunlight - uses a solar panel to convert solar energy into power for the mobile phone. The solar charger is delivered with a set of six mobile phone adapter plugs covering the main cell phone brands including Nokia and Sony Ericsson along with MP3 players and some computers. This is a very interesting plan and hope more telecommunication operators around the world buck up for the same.
