Vittoria Technology

Scalable Battery Leasing (+) for Sustainable Uganda Mini-Grids

The project will leverage BBA’s scalable battery finance and technology to offer affordable, reliable clean energy access through three rural mini-grids. The project will utilise the BBA digital platform to confirm battery expansion sizing of each site, based on site engagement, which will enable the partner organisation to extend power service to surrounding home-based businesses and to sufficiently power PUE appliances and home electronics.

Outcome and Impact

Vittoria Technology aims to build three mini-grids, including 130 connections, and to distribute 57 PUE products. A total of 745 people will gain enhanced energy access. On an annual basis, 141 tCO2e will be reduced and 423 MWh of clean electricity will be generated. Through this project, 1 temporary and 6 permanent jobs will be created, with 50% of leadership positions filled by women. Savings on energy-related expenditure is estimated to be EUR 94K.
