The solution is called a bundle. Each bundle is formed up of a 30MWp solar farm, a 35MWh energy storage system and an assembly line to assemble everything in Kenya. They develop the site of each bundle, work with a local EPC contractor to build the solar farm and then connect the site to local businesses needing power. Rock46 works with local stakeholders to utilise existing, "best in class" technology in order to deliver reliable and affordable power solutions to the sub-Saharan region. The combination of their technologies boosts the efficiency of a solar farm to 33%, the lifetime to over 30 years and is on track to bring the price down from $18 cents/kWh to $6.9 cents/kWh.

The Environmental Benefits

  • 55,000 Tonnes of CO2 removed per year per 30MW installed compared to traditional power
  • 13% more efficient than traditional solar so less land is used and fewer panels are built.

The Financial Benefits

  • Electricity price reduced to $6.9 cents/kWh
  • For solar farm investors, 400+% return over 25 years.
