HBOWA successfully delivered a 300kW PV + 400kWh off-grid energy storage system to Togo, West Africa, and put it into operation. The system is designed to provide stable electricity for local no-grid areas. With solar generation, battery storage, and intelligent energy management, the project helps local users reduce diesel generator dependence and improve electricity reliability.

Project Overview

Customer Challenge

The local customer needed a reliable power solution for the area with no grid access in Togo. Diesel generators could provide electricity, but fuel cost, maintenance, noise, and long-term operating expenses were his major concerns. He required a cleaner and more stable energy system that could operate under West Africa’s high-temperature and high-solar-radiation environment.

Energy Storage Solution

HBOWA customizes the energy power system for him; the project uses a 300kW solar PV system combined with 400kWh battery energy storage. Solar power supplies the load during the day, while excess energy is stored in the battery system for nighttime and rainy days.
