Lesotho Working with intermittent grid supplies can be a challenge. ZedEnergy were able to combine solar power and a diesel generator to provide guaranteed electricity for vital services at a hospice in Lesotho, thanks to our advanced energy storage system. The Range At the heart of our systems is our own 48v lithium iron (LiFePO4) battery which has over three years test data that proves we can charge and discharge simultaneously at 99% DOD without losing performance or storage capacity. The batteries are designed to be repaired, refreshed and recycled, in the country of use, and after their first life cycle of around seven years can be fully refreshed using 40% of the original materials again.
