Guaranteed Power Continuity: Installation of a 10 kVA / 10 kWh Backup System for a Community in Kigali/Kicukiro

Today, religious communities maintain and manage a significant amount of essential information, including archives, digital content, communications, administrative databases, historical documents, and resources for their members. 

The server is, at the heart of this organization, the pillar of continuity and the guardian of collective memory. However, when the power supply becomes unstable, this can have disastrous consequences.

Solution provided for the servers in the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses

In this context, the challenge was to power the equipment while also protecting this community’s strategic infrastructure. With GoShop’s support, the client opted for a 10 kVA backup system combined with 10 kWh of energy storage, which was deployed to ensure uninterrupted power for the Jehovah’s Witnesses’ server room in Kigali/Kicukiro, comprising:

• • 2 Victron 5 kVA inverters
  • 2 BYB 5 kWh batteries

The system acts as active protection; as soon as a disruption occurs, the power transition is seamless, with no noticeable interruption to IT equipment. As a result, servers remain operational even when the main grid is unstable.

Significant Results and Measured Impact

Thanks to this solution, the community has eliminated the 40 hours of outages recorded on average each month, now achieving 100% uptime for the server room. This system provides a guaranteed 10-hour runtime, covering the vast majority of power outages.

• 24/7 availability and a guaranteed 100% uptime rate;
• Complete security for data and digital archives;
• Optimal protection for sensitive equipment against power fluctuations;
• Business continuity for the entire community;

Protecting a server room also means protecting digital data, business continuity, and the resources of an entire community.
