GadgetroniX – Reverse osmosis system at the Lake Ndutu Tented Lodge (Tanzania)

GadgetroniX installed a solar-powered reverse osmosis (RO) system at Lake Ndutu Tented Lodge in Tanzania to provide a reliable supply of 1,000 liters of potable water per hour. The system integrates an 8.64 kWp solar array, lithium battery storage, and remote monitoring to reduce grid reliance, lower operational costs, and decrease the lodge's carbon footprint.

• The installed reverse osmosis system produces 1,000 liters of clean water per hour for guests at Lake Ndutu Tented Lodge, replacing inefficient and costly traditional supply methods that relied heavily on grid power.
• The technical configuration of the solar integration includes an 8.64 kWp solar array consisting of 16 JA Solar MBB Half-cell Monocrystalline PV Modules (540 W each), supported by a 10kWh HV LiFePO4 battery and Victron charge controllers and inverters.
• The system's impact includes reduced electricity expenses, lower carbon emissions, and the ability to perform proactive maintenance via remote monitoring using Victron Cerbo GX and GX touch displays.
