Case Study: BuffaloGrid achieves faster, easier solar hub location with what3words

Locating solar hubs with what3words and BuffaloGrid

BuffaloGrid delivers and installs solar-powered hubs across informal settlements in India to provide charging points and internet access. Accurately locating each hub in dense, underserved areas was time-consuming for field agents and slowed operations.

To fix this, BuffaloGrid records a what3words 3-word address for every hub and stores these in a database, so agents can quickly navigate to sites using the free what3words app. The approach makes hubs easy to find, saves the company valuable time, and supports growth and the social and economic development of the communities served.
