Empowering Industrial Growth with Sustainable Energy: Solar & Hybrid Solutions by SB Power

 

As energy costs rise and sustainability becomes a priority, businesses across industries are seeking innovative solutions to reduce expenses and secure energy independence. At SB Power, we specialize in delivering tailored renewable energy systems that drive efficiency, lower costs, and support long-term sustainability goals.

Transforming Industrial Energy Use: A Case Study

A large industrial manufacturing company partnered with SB Power to cut energy costs and eliminate reliance on an unstable national grid that disrupted business uptime. Our team designed and implemented a 313.5 kWp grid-tied solar energy system, providing power to both the factory and office buildings. This solution significantly lowered energy costs, realised energy independence and improved energy efficiency.

System Specifications & Performance

✅ Factory: 528 x 545-watt solar panels, 3x 110 kW 3-phase grid-tied inverters, and complete AC/DC cabling.

✅ Office: 77 x 550-watt solar panels, 3x 12 kW 3-phase inverters, and LIB batteries.

✅ Annual Output:

  • Factory: 485.1 MWh with a 79.4% performance ratio.
  • Office: 70.39 MWh with an 80% performance ratio.

By leveraging advanced site analysis tools like Helioscope, we ensured the highest efficiency and optimized panel placement.

The result: a seamless, high-performance solar system that enhances operational reliability while cutting energy expenses.

Why Industrial Companies Should Consider Solar & BESS Solutions

Industrial businesses—from SMEs to large enterprises—stand to gain significantly from solar power and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS):

📉  Lower energy costs: Reduce reliance on expensive grid electricity and fossil fuels.

🔋   Energy independence: Store excess solar power and use it when needed.

🌍  Sustainability: Reduce carbon footprints and contribute to a greener future.

For SMEs, solar and BESS provide a quick return on investment by stabilizing energy costs and ensuring power reliability. Larger industrial facilities can drastically cut expenses while enhancing operational resilience.

Beyond Solar: Hybrid Solutions for Unpredictable Energy Environments

While solar is highly effective, some regions—especially in Sub-Saharan and East Africa—require hybrid solutions to ensure continuous power supply. SB Power integrates:

✔ Waste-to-Energy (W2E): Converts agricultural/industrial waste into usable energy—solving waste disposal challenges and producing sustainable power.

✔ Mini-grid Gas Turbines: Provide reliable power in remote, off-grid locations where traditional grid access is unavailable or unstable.

Reliable Power for Remote and Off-Grid Industries

Many businesses in Africa rely on expensive, inefficient diesel generators due to limited grid access. SB Power’s off-grid hybrid systems—solar, W2E, and mini-grid gas turbines—provide clean, cost-effective energy, enabling industries to grow without environmental compromises.

Why Partner with SB Power?

✅ Tailored energy solutions—from grid-tied solar to fully off-grid hybrid systems.

✅ Sustainability-focused—helping companies meet carbon reduction goals.

✅ Reliable performance—with remote monitoring and real-time diagnostics.

✅ Expertise in emerging markets—specializing in energy challenges across Africa.
