Llamadas Pedaleadas is a ready made business for  rural enterpreneurs that is built with used car parts that creates the renewable energy needed to power the phone calls with pedal power.  This allows local entrepreneurs to sell low cost calls from anywhere in the country without having to plug-in to the power grid which is very useful in rural areas.
