Duron was founded on the idea that a market driven approach could help address the challenge of inadequate access to electricity around the world. Duron was launched in early 2008 within Idealab, an incubator of technology companies based in Pasadena, California. John Howard, James Burgess and Ghyrn Loveness, all former classmates at Caltech, joined Idealab CEO Bill Gross, a solar energy pioneer, and Amit Shah to develop a business model that could provide affordable and reliable electricity to millions of people worldwide. Their first product, the Duron solar home system, was shaped by numerous revisions and field trials in rural India. The focus was always on the optimal trade-off between features and price for the customer.
