VISION

Solar Battery Hub

The SBH adds a brand-new dimension to microgrid technologies for off-grid rural communities.
Rather than a fully connected microgrid, the SBH will utilise a fixed location solar array to charge multiple small batteries that can be rented by users.


The SBH is designed to be located at a central location where its services can be offered primarily to productive energy users such as SMEs, schools, medical centres and market stall operators.

​

SBH then enables people to rent batteries and only pay for the energy they use, when they need it through an innovative commercial proposition that will enable both long term rental/recharging, as well as shorter term options.

Why Solar Battery Hub?

Compared with fixed, wired microgrids, the SBH offers a range of benefits:

  • Rapidly deployable with a small system being deployed within weeks.

  • Avoids the cost of cabling and complex system integration.

  • Can be an interim measure used ahead of grid or larger scale microgrid developments.

  • Scalable, de-risking large scale investments.

  • Semi-mobile, so can be redeployed if it becomes obsolete.

  • Flexible commercial options for both operators and customers
