Mission
To supply high quality equipment to the best solar installers in Africa.
Vision
To create a viable solar energy market that is financially sustainable for our customers, suppliers, and partners.
Use of Proceeds / Loan purpose
With a first loan of EUR 240,000 new partner African Energy will be able to purchase a container of batteries and solar panels, which will be used by two universities in Abuja, Nigeria to replace diesel generators.
Some Applications
The solar equipment we supply is installed in many productive use applications across Africa and they benefit a wide range of communities. Some of the latest productive use applications are the following:
Milk cooling project for Milk collection centers and Milk distribution in Rwanda. Our customer (CLEAN ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES) recently completed installation of 45kw PV array with 85Kwh energy storage using WeCo batteries at Rwimbogo Dairy Cooperative. The installed solar system is helping farmers in the Eastern province of Rwanda to preserve more than 5000 liters of fresh milk per day at the collection center, where milk is collected from small cattle owners twice a day. It is then cooled in 3000L tanks to controlled temperatures to prevent the milk from being spoiled before it is collected by INYANGE dairy processors for further processing, packaging, and distribution to retail outlets.
Electrification of a remote island off the coast of Tanzania: Our customer, Photons Energy, a Arusha-Based solar company, designed, supplied, and installed two solar PV minigrids on two small islands -- Kokota and Njau—that are part of many islets on Pemba Island, off the coast of Tanzania. Total energy installed is 131kw of PV and 245KWH of WeCo Lithium batteries. These Minigrids are expected to provide more than 190MW/yr of energy to the two remote islands that had never had any type of reliable power. More than 680 residents of those islands are now enjoying clean reliable power, and the economic activities are expected to boom.
African Energy
Učinek
African Energy zagotavlja solarno električno opremo, usposabljanje za njeno pravilno namestitev in poslovno podporo, ki podjetnikom omogoča, da na afriški celini vzpostavijo uspešna podjetja na področju sončne energije.
S svojimi dejavnostmi in operacijami African Energy zagotavlja vodne črpalke na sončno energijo kmetijam in malim kmetijskim lastnikom, ki zmanjšujejo stroške črpanja in zaradi namakanja izboljšujejo pridelek. Zdravstvene klinike in bolnišnice so glavni trg za njihove izdelke, od majhnih sistemov razsvetljave do solarnih sistemov za črpanje vode, ki zagotavljajo čisto pitno vodo in zmanjšujejo najpogostejši vzrok slabega zdravja v Afriki. Učenci imajo koristi od sončne energije v šoli, saj ta napaja računalnike in zaradi klimatskih naprav celo ohlaja učilnico.
Kar zadeva gospodarsko rast, sistemi African Energy z namestitvijo zanesljivih rezervnih sistemov vsak dan zagotavljajo delovanje kritične infrastrukture v omrežju ali zunaj njega po vsej Afriki. To omogoča večjo gospodarsko rast in stabilnejše zaposlovanje.
