Aptech Africa – PV-Hybrid Installation (Cameroon)
Summary
This case study describes the installation of a hybrid solar grid system by Aptech Africa for the UNDP country office in Yaoundé, Cameroon, to ensure power stability for critical IT equipment and reduce the organization's carbon footprint.
Key insights
- Aptech Africa installed an 18.36 kWp hybrid solar grid system featuring 25.2 kWh of energy storage for the UNDP country office in Yaoundé, Cameroon.
- The project was implemented to address the lack of a reliable and consistent power source at the UNDP office, specifically to prevent power interruptions for critical IT equipment, reduce the carbon footprint, and stabilize the existing grid.
- Funded by the UNDP, the project covered supply, installation, and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs, with Aptech Africa continuing to provide O&M to ensure optimal operation and serve as a demonstration site for similar solutions in Cameroon.
