CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand<\/span>, Sept. 24, 2024<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0Two advanced energy solutions companies are announcing a multi-year partnership to support the growing demand for reliable and efficient charging solutions across the African market. The IDEAL Industries, Inc.<\/a> brand EcoCharge<\/a> by Enatel\u00ae<\/a>, a global leader in battery charging technologies, is supplying charging technology to Balancell, a cutting-edge battery manufacturer and energy supplier.<\/p>\n

Empowering Africa’s<\/span> Energy Transition<\/p>\n

Africa<\/span> is experiencing a dynamic shift toward sustainable energy and electric mobility. Global banks and investors funded<\/a> $76.04 billion<\/span> in solar, hydropower, and wind projects across Africa<\/span> from 2012 to 2021. The investments supported renewable energy developments like Kenya’s<\/span> Lake Turkana Wind Power Project<\/a>, a $1.095 billion<\/span> wind farm that boosted their total electricity supply by 13%. Electrification is also rising; Africa’s<\/span> electric vehicle market is expected to nearly double<\/a> between 2021 and 2027.<\/p>\n

However, more work remains. Africa<\/span> attracts less than 5%<\/a> of the world’s energy investments, using<\/a> only 11% of its hydropower potential and 0.01% of its wind potential. Over 40% of Africans still lack access<\/a> to electricity.<\/p>\n

To advance battery charging solutions in Africa,\u00a0Balancell will leverage charging technologies from EcoCharge to electrify the African material handling fleet. This initiative will help reduce CO2 emissions and enhance charging efficiency.<\/p>\n

“We are thrilled to be part of the renewable energy transition in Africa<\/span>,” said Enatel General Manager Mike Clifford<\/span>. “By partnering with Balancell, we are matching a leading-edge battery design with an advanced charger. We’re confident this winning combination will help our customers achieve faster charging, less energy waste, and higher performance.”<\/p>\n

Partnering for Growth and Sustainability<\/p>\n

Under the agreement, EcoCharge will supply Balancell with a range of chargers that meet the challenging needs of the African market, such as unstable electrical grids and harsh environments. These advanced chargers will be integrated into Balancell’s advanced industrial batteries, providing the perfect match for optimal energy management and control.<\/p>\n

“Partnering with EcoCharge allows us to offer our customers superior charging solutions that are both innovative and sustainable,” said Paul Osborne<\/span>, Director and Chief Financial Officer of Balancell. “This collaboration enhances our ability to deliver comprehensive energy solutions that support Africa’s<\/span> transition to cleaner, more sustainable energy sources.”<\/p>\n

Driving Innovation<\/p>\n

EcoCharge chargers are known for their durability, efficiency, and adaptability, making them suitable for deployment in diverse and sometimes challenging environments across Africa<\/span>. This partnership with Balancell not only strengthens the product offerings available to the African market but also underscores the EcoCharge commitment to continued innovation and investment in sustainable energy solutions.<\/p>\n
