Koko Networks, the energy whiz known for its clean cooking game, is now cooking up something new: a telecom empire! They’ve just applied for a tier-three network facilities provider (NFP) license from the Kenyan government.

Koko’s been a champion of cleaner energy, particularly ethanol, to help Kenyan households ditch smoky stoves. But now, they’re turning their attention to the digital world. With this new license, Koko could build its own communication network, using everything from wires to wireless waves. They could even piggyback on existing power lines to beam internet signals to remote areas.
A Crowded Telecom Kitchen? Koko isn’t alone in this culinary adventure. Other companies like Kimba Luxury Retreat Castle (yes, you read that right!) and Newcom Towers are also vying for similar licenses.
This move by Koko highlights the growing demand for localized communication networks. It’s like building your own neighborhood internet, tailored to specific needs. This could be a game-changer for regions that have been left out of the digital revolution. So, next time you’re enjoying a clean cook on an ethanol stove, you might also be surfing the web on a network powered by the same company!
Here’s what it means for you:
