Hi, Another team member passing by here. I was very much intrigued by your concept here. However, I do have a few suggestions that you might want to take into account when working on the final submission. The fairness of the system: How will you ensure that the counter is not falsely modified for the given benefits to retrieved. The motivation behind the discount system: What are the motivational aspects to the system and why do you think the companies mentioned will be interested providing the presumable large user base with these sorts of discounts. For any positive (environmentally) policy there is a positive externality associated with it, however, I suggest you do more extensive analysis of the cost of much system and the benefits it will bring. Will the users be willing to spend more for it? Best of luck!

Hi, Another team member here passing by. Very interesting concept, however, I did find I few notes on it. How confident are you that the potential solution would gain enough energy from the solar panels for the given purpose? In addition to that, it is important to consider the usability of such connections at that point of wireless communication development around the world. Is StarLink by SpaceX for example not a better solution? If so, the portable solar panel could be used for powering these ground station elements. All and all I do believe that the presented concept of a portable solar panel is an interesting one especially given the presence of a high yearly solar energy density average in such continents as Africa, however, I do suggest taking into account the concerns raised for the final solution. Best of luck!

1. I very much greatly believe that the best way act responsibly in this world is to consume the most reliable and non-bias media reporting. This is why from this day forwards, I have decided that I will never buy the Daily Mail ever again, period. 2. A great interest of mine is mycelium technology and how it could be used to grow products in our future cities, and would love to do CAD work designing systems that could be grown using this mycelium technology in order to build items such as packaging and plates. 3. I want to take more time out of my life to get involved with my piano group. The interactions with the group in this designathon has reminded me of the importance of teamwork and group interactions and I thoroughly believe that the best way to change the world is through community!
