GadgetroniX – Departure Centre solar power system (Tanzania)
Summary
This case study describes the installation of an off-grid solar power system by GadgetroniX for the UNHCR Departure Center in Arusha, Tanzania, to support humanitarian operations and reduce reliance on diesel generators and the unstable power grid.
Key insights
- GadgetroniX installed a solar power system at the UNHCR Departure Center in Arusha to provide stable energy for office operations, logistics coordination, and communication support, aiming to decrease dependence on the grid and diesel generators.
- The technical specifications of the installed system include a 30.8 kWp solar array consisting of 56 JA Solar MBB Half-Cell Monocrystalline PV Modules, 100 kWh of Freedom Won LiTE Commercial lithium battery storage, and a 50kW / 65kVA ATESS HPS50 3-Phase Hybrid Inverter.
- The project achieved several operational outcomes, including the provision of uninterrupted power for critical functions, the enablement of real-time performance tracking via the ATESS EnerLog remote monitoring system, and the support of low-emission operations.
