Where we come from
We are engineers first, and it shows.
Franz Sistemich started Equator Solar in 2011, back when almost nobody in Uganda was doing solar engineering properly for business. Fifteen years later we have more than 300 systems running in the field and a team of 22 people who look after them.
We are engineers before we are anything else. That means we start by measuring what your site actually draws, then build the whole system around that number. Solar, batteries, hybrid or off-grid, with the monitoring and controls that keep it honest for the next 25 years.
We work at commercial and industrial scale, from about 20 kW up to 2 MW, so we are not the people to call for a panel on the roof at home. Our senior engineers have been doing this long enough to care about the things nobody sees. The cable sizing, the earthing, the fault logs.
We bring German engineering discipline and pair it with people who know how things actually work here. That mix is why factories, hospitals, schools and international organisations hand us their power and then stop thinking about it.
