Owanga Solar battery
Owanga Solar

Project Category: Clean Energy and

Sub-category: Tech and Innovation

DRC, Africa

Owanga is a company focused on providing affordable and accessible energy solutions in Congo. We rent out portable battery packs to users for $2 a day, and we also sell them for $250. Our service is designed to meet the energy needs of individuals and businesses in areas with limited access to reliable electricity.

With the support of a grant, we developed a new stackable battery solution, improving upon our previous product. This innovation allows for more efficient use of space, making the battery packs easier to transport and store. Our goal is to continue expanding our reach and improve the lives of our customers by providing them with a reliable and sustainable energy source.

Our team chose to take on this project because of the significant electricity challenges that impacts daily life of individuals and businesses in Congo.
