Solar thermal technology, where sunlight is converted into heat is vastly untapped in Africa despite its abundant sunshine and potential to make positive impact. The African continent is currently dependent on the use of traditional biomass fuels like wood and charcoal for heating which has led to devastating levels of deforestation and carbon emissions. ...

The potential of solar heating is vastly untapped in Africa, despite its abundant solar resource. This is chiefly because current solar thermal solutions, where sunlight is converted into heat, have been primarily developed for the needs of industrialised economies (e.g. Europe). In this project SolarisKit (UK) will partner with Solflare (Kenya) to develo...

This project will bring to market a new circular design flat-packed, self-assembled solar thermal collector. A unique device which can be assembled without any tools and used to convert solar energy into heat in the form of hot water. The solar collector will provide a new way to harness solar energy to provide low cost, carbon free hot water for househol...

Solar thermal technology has the potential to drastically reduce dependence on fossil and biomass fuels to meet heating demand in sub-Sahara Africa. Harnessing Africa's abundant solar radiation with solar thermal will reduce end user energy costs, lower the demand on grid, decrease deforestation, while improving energy security and lowering carbon emissio...

SolarisKit is developing a new, lower cost, flat-packable solar thermal collector to the sub-Saharan market. Our collector will provide a more affordable method to provide clean hot water to homes, business (e.g. hotels) and industry. This project focuses on developing the collector for pilot trials in Rwanda. We will be targeting the installation of up t...
