Nthabiseng Mosia is a South African entrepreneur and founder of the Sierra Leone-based solar energy company EasySolar.

Mosia was born in Ghana, later moving to South Africa. Her family home in South Africa often experienced blackouts due to unreliable supply of electricity. She studied for a Master's degree in energy finance and policy at Columbia University, where she met her future co-founders of EasySolar.^[1]

Mosia conceived the idea for providing reliable and safe electricity in underdeveloped African nations during her masters. Herself and her fellow co-founders won major funding for the project from competitions and hackathons in the US. Initial monies allowed Mosia and colleagues to conduct a survey of energy availability across 1500 Sierra Leonean households.^[1]
