Please describe your proposed solution.

Our solution is a mobile electricity supply application. This application will allow anyone living in the DRC to obtain electricity via their telephone. The objective is to allow the person in need to pay for their electricity without having to go to the counter, for this purpose payment is made via local electronic money and ADA payement will be support

How does your proposed solution address the challenge and what benefits will this bring to the Cardano ecosystem?

In the DRC, especially in urban areas, electricity distribution companies are starting to fail more and more. This application will help many people given the major need felt. The impact of this product / application lies in the number of people this solution can help. Also the integration of payments via ADA will allow the expansion of the Cardano ecosystem

How do you intend to measure the success of your project?

The success of this project is measured by the number of active users of the application. Each user will be asked to create an account and certain activities of the latter will be observed in order to determine whether the user is active or not. The objective for this phase is to reach at least 80% of subscribers to electricity distribution companies in the city of Goma.

Please describe your plans to share the outputs and results of your project?

  1. Publication of the application on appstore and playstore
  2. Creation of 5 complaint counters
  3. Awareness campaign

What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability?

Our team is made up of three IT developers with significant experience. see GitHub account.

A team member already manages a stakepool.

What are the main goals for the project and how will you validate if your approach is feasible?

  1. Get at least 80% of utility company subscribers to use our app
  2. Make sure to favor payments via the ADA cryptocurrency

Please provide a detailed breakdown of your project’s milestones and each of the main tasks or activities to reach the milestone plus the expected timeline for the delivery.

The application is already started, but not yet finished, so the ventilation should start with the finalization of the application.

FINALIZATION OF THE APPLICATION

2 Months: integration (in the application) of payments via local electronic currencies and integration (in the application) of payments via the ADA cryptocurrency

2 Months: Testing and patching

DELIVERY

1 Publication of the application on appstore and playstore

2 3 Months: Household awareness campaign (door to door). For this effect, visibilities linked to the application will be required: 36 T-shirts + 36 Hats, 15 Sensitizers and 5 counters

Please describe the deliverables, outputs and intended outcomes of each milestone.

Step 1

Publication of our application on appstore and playstore. At this stage the application will already be tested and all payment methods will be integrated (ADA and local electronic currencies)

Step 2

Awareness campaign. At this stage, a team of sensitizers will be deployed in the city of Goma and will have two objectives: to inform subscribers of the existence of our application and to show them how to use it.

Please provide a detailed budget breakdown of the proposed work and resources.

The application is already started, but not yet finished, so the ventilation should start with the finalization of the application.
