Even in residential neighborhoods of Kigali, such as Gacuriro in Rwanda, power instability is a constant reality that affects residents’ quality of life. Frequent outages forced the residents of this complex to rely on a diesel generator to maintain their daily activities.
However, this temporary solution entailed considerable costs for diesel and regular maintenance fees, impacting the residents’ well-being before the installation of an 18.6 kWp solar system.
The GoShop Energy Solution: Autonomy and Performance
To meet these needs, the customer opted for an 18 kVA, 18.6 kWc, and 80 kWh solar system deployed and installed by GoShop Energy to provide the customer with energy independence and performance.
This smart architecture allows the residence to generate, store, and manage its energy while adapting to grid fluctuations with:
30 GoSolar 620 W panels for solar energy generation
16 GoPower 5 kWh batteries for continuous energy storage
3 Victron inverters, each rated at 6 kVA
Results and Impact
Today, the customer benefits from a solar system with an estimated energy self-sufficiency rate of nearly 98% without fluctuations. The energy supply remains stable and reliable, and has also reduced generator usage and associated costs, whether for fuel or maintenance.
With a tailored solar solution, it is now possible to be independent of the grid and generators while maintaining a stable daily energy supply.
Every GoShop Energy installation is sized according to the customer’s actual needs to ensure long-term usability and profitability.
