Logo for off-grid solar power company in Africa.

Empower Solar

No

This is a logo for a new solar power system distributor in East Africa (South Sudan and Uganda). We sell, install and maintain small home solar systems, mostly for low-income families in off-grid communities. Our distinctive is making solar available where it wasn't before and affordable where it was too expensive. Our primary products are Eight19's IndiGo (http://www.eight19.com/technology/indigo-delivers-power-grid-communities) and Barefoot Power (http://www.barefootpower.com/).

We want a distinctive but simple logo that inspires and uplifts. It would be great to convey the idea that "solar power is now within your reach", even if you have a very low income. This doesn't need to be graphically represented but rather a feeling imparted by the colors, shapes, design, etc.

The logo needs to be simple enough that it can be used easily on business cards, t-shirts, signs and other printed materials.

blue plus orange and/or yellow. please use color scheme inspired by and complementary to IndiGo/Eight19 (http://www.eight19.com/technology/indigo-delivers-power-grid-communities) and Barefoot Power (http://www.barefootpower.com/), but not confused with mobile network MTN (http://mtn.co.ug/) which uses yellow and blue.

not sure

This needs to be simple and clean but not so plain that it looks like something I made after playing with different fonts for a few minutes. It needs to be distintive and creative while maintaining this simplicity.

One thing I'd rather not see is a logo focused around a sun graphic as about half of solar companies seem to use something like that.
