Wait, these poor villagers cant afford to buy $25,000 of new batteries every 4 years?
Is it that bad?

It failed because niggers. Plenty of White homesteaders made solar work just fine and could probably do so on a village-scale. Solar is a shit tier energy source for any sort of bulk energy needs, but it's not terrible for remote homesteading.
Long before the interwebs I read a magazine article by a guy that had gone to a village in Africa as part of the Peace Corps in the 60s. While there he help the village build a small school house, and get a well and hand pump installed. 25 years later he takes his college grad son to show him what he did when he got out of college. The school house was a pile of rubble, and the women had to walk to the river to get water (again). He asks some of the older villagers that remembered him what happened to the school and the well. They said 'you left'.
This has been happening all over the world for decades. White liberals with government grants fly into some Third World shithole and build wells, or a dam across a river, or some kind of manufacturing or processing facility. Then they fly away and never come back. In a short while, the thing they built stops working or is stripped for parts by thieves.
