Captive Solar & Hybrid Power Systems
At Kweli Energy, we design and deliver captive solar and hybrid power systems in Uganda and across East Africa. These systems integrate solar panels, battery storage, grid supply, and diesel generators into one reliable power system.
They are built for homes, commercial buildings, and industrial sites where grid power is unstable, expensive, or both.
- Daytime solar generation eliminates or reduces reliance on grid power and diesel generators.
- Battery storage captures excess solar energy, stabilises supply, and protects essential loads during grid voltage fluctuations or outages.
- The system automatically balances between solar, battery, grid, and generator supply to maintain continuity while lowering overall energy costs.
The core objective is simple: stable power first, then lower and more predictable energy costs over time.
Why clients choose captive and hybrid solar systems
Across Uganda and the wider East African region, unreliable grid power affects both businesses and households.
For commercial and industrial clients, unstable power can mean lost production time, disrupted services, and equipment damage caused by voltage fluctuations. Heavy reliance on diesel generators increases fuel costs, maintenance expenses, and operational risk. Energy costs become difficult to predict and manage.
For residential clients, frequent power cuts interrupt daily life. Generator noise, fuel costs, and inconvenience become part of the routine. Many homes rely on backup systems that are either undersized or poorly integrated.
Captive solar and hybrid power systems address these challenges directly. By combining solar generation, battery storage, grid supply, and diesel generators into one coordinated system, power becomes stable, predictable, and easier to manage.
The result is fewer interruptions, reduced generator runtime, and more controlled electricity costs.
