In Zambia, 60% of rural areas lack grid access. Antimalarial drugs in malaria - endemic regions spoil due to power outages (annual loss exceeds 50%), and families rely on diesel lamps for lighting in 40℃ dry - season heat (carbon monoxide poisoning rates increase by 30% monthly)... This project deploys 30 - kilowatt - hour (KWh) off - grid energy storage systems in suburban Lusaka and rural Copperbelt Province, Zambia, combined with photovoltaic arrays, creating a "energy autonomy + health protection" lifeline for rural areas:
Extreme Environment Resistance: Utilizes lithium iron phosphate batteries + IP66 dust - and - water - proof cabinets, withstanding dry - season dust and rainy - season floods, ensuring 12 - year fault - free operation in Zambia’s alternating dry - wet seasons;
Medical - Grade Power Supply: Provides 24/7 uninterrupted power for antimalarial drug refrigerators (2–8℃ constant temperature) and home oxygen concentrators (emergency use for malaria patients)；
Freedom of Daily Electricity Use: Paired with 3KW photovoltaic panels (Zambia enjoys an average annual sunshine duration of 2,900 hours), it stores energy during the day to support 8 hours of full - load operation of air conditioners (cooling in dry seasons), refrigerators (food preservation), and LED lighting (replacing diesel lamps), completely ending the survival dilemma of "diesel smoke + dark nights".
The project deeply aligns with the "Off - Grid Energy Subsidy Program" in Zambia’s 2030 Renewable Energy Development Roadmap: Households only bear 40% of the equipment cost, with the government and international funds covering 60%. Data from the first batch of 200 households shows:
·A 40% reduction in average household medical expenses (due to reduced drug spoilage and timely first aid);
·Zero diesel use, reducing carbon emissions by 3.2 tons per household annually (equivalent to planting 160 acacia trees);
·An increase of 2.5 hours/day in children’s nighttime study time (guaranteed by LED lighting).
As the core solution provider, SUNFORCE uses the "30KWh off - grid energy storage unit" as a fulcrum to transform Zambia from "energy scarcity" to "health empowerment".
