Years of Equator Solar

All projects

Equator Solar Systems Ltd, the East African company ZNX Energy works with, built all of these projects. ZNX has no completed reference in Germany yet. kWp is the peak output of the solar panels, and kWh is the energy the battery can store. Hybrid means the system combines solar, battery and grid, and at Jesa also the diesel generators.

Kyamuhunga Tea Company, built by Equator Solar Systems Ltd

Kyamuhunga Tea Company

500 kWp PV + 200 kWh battery

This tea factory is on a rural grid that could not deliver a steady supply. Solar now covers most of the working day, so the factory relies far less on the grid and burns less fuel.

Corsu Rehabilitation Hospital

100 kWp PV + 120 kWh battery

In this specialist orthopaedic hospital, the operating theatres and imaging cannot go without power. The system keeps the critical circuits supplied first, and the generator starts automatically when an outage lasts longer.

Jesa Farm Dairy

200 kWp PV linked to diesel generators

Uganda’s largest independent dairy runs process loads around the clock, so its power supply must not fail. The system works with both the grid and the diesel generators, so the process never stops.
