Solar and energy resilience

GIT PowerSure

Grid outages stop servers, tills and classrooms, and running a generator for hours every day is expensive. With PowerSure, we design and install solar, battery and hybrid power systems that cut diesel use and keep your critical equipment on through every outage.

What you get
IT and operations that keep running when the grid fails, a generator that runs far less, and a system we monitor and maintain for you.

For any site that can't afford to lose power

Server rooms & data centres Offices, banks & shops Schools & clinics VSAT & telecom sites Mining & field camps NGO & UN field offices

Grid power is limited and diesel is costly

Most organisations here rely on their own generators. Solar with battery storage lets you run the generator less and keep critical equipment on when the grid drops.

About 33%
of Liberians had access to electricity in 2025, according to government figures.
91%
of Liberian firms owned a generator in 2025, up from 73% in 2017.
$0.22/kWh
LEC commercial tariff for January 2026 to December 2028, plus a fixed monthly charge.
$6.55/gal
retail diesel price in Liberia in April 2026, up from $4.31 in June 2025.

Our estimate, not a quote: at $6.55 a gallon (about $1.73 a litre), and assuming a small generator produces 3 to 3.5 kWh per litre, fuel alone costs roughly $0.50 to $0.58 per kWh before servicing and repairs. That is more than twice the LEC commercial tariff. Actual costs depend on your generator, its load and how well it is maintained.

Import duty relief: Executive Order 168 suspends import tariffs on listed off-grid solar and renewable energy products for one year from 1 September 2026. GST, customs user fees and the ECOWAS levy still apply, and importers must be registered with the Liberia Business Registry and the Rural and Renewable Energy Agency (RREA). We confirm which items in your system qualify when we prepare your proposal. Source: SolarQuarter, Sep 2026.

What GIT PowerSure puts on site

Most systems combine solar panels, a hybrid inverter and lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries, with the grid or a generator as backup. The ranges below are typical starting points.

Server rooms and IT backup

Keep servers, network and security systems running for hours, not minutes, when the grid and the UPS run out.

Typical scope
3–15 kW hybrid inverter, 10–30 kWh LiFePO4 storage, integrated with your UPS
Monitoring
Power and battery alerts sent to our support team
Infrastructure and connectivity →

Offices and businesses

Offset daytime grid and generator power for offices, banks, shops and hotels, with storage for critical circuits.

Typical scope
10–100 kWp of solar with a hybrid inverter, synchronised with the grid and generator
Monitoring
Energy meter dashboard and monthly report
GIT BizBoost for SMEs →

Schools and clinics

Power computer labs, lighting, vaccine fridges and medical equipment where the grid is weak or absent.

Typical scope
3–15 kWp off-grid or hybrid system with battery storage for lab, cold-chain or clinic circuits
Monitoring
Remote monitoring with a maintenance plan
GIT EduLab computer labs →

Remote and VSAT sites

Keep VSAT, Starlink, radio and network equipment online at sites with no grid, and cut fuel runs.

Typical scope
1–5 kWp of solar with 5–20 kWh of storage, AC or DC
Monitoring
Remote monitoring of power and battery health
See our connectivity projects →

Mining and field camps

Reduce generator hours at camps, workshops and site offices, and keep site IT and communications powered.

Typical scope
From 20 kWp up to large solar-diesel hybrids with battery storage, containerised where needed
Monitoring
Fuel and power data alongside site monitoring
GIT MineTrack for mining →

NGO field offices

Reliable power for field offices, communications and cold chain, with documents that fit donor procurement rules.

Typical scope
Hybrid system sized to office, communications and cold-chain loads
Monitoring
Multi-year maintenance plan with performance reports
GIT NGOConnect for NGOs →

Brands we supply and support

Victron Deye Growatt Pylontech SolarEdge APC Eaton

We choose the system type from your grid supply, your loads and how long you need to ride through an outage; grid-tied solar gives no backup without batteries. We supply IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 certified modules, LiFePO4 storage and hybrid inverters, choosing brands per project for availability, warranty support and fit with your equipment. See the power systems range.

Typical ranges only. Every system is sized from a site survey and load audit, and priced per project.

From site survey to a system we maintain

We size every system from measured loads and fuel records, not guesswork, and design it for the rainy season as well as the dry season.

1
Site survey
Roof or ground space, shading, structure, existing generator and grid connection.
2
Load and fuel audit
One to two weeks of logging critical and non-critical loads, plus your fuel records and power bills.
3
System design
Solar and battery sizing for rainy-season output, a single-line diagram and a cost comparison against diesel.
4
Supply
Certified equipment from established manufacturers, with import duty relief applied where items qualify.
5
Installation and commissioning
Installation by our engineers, a commissioning test report, as-built drawings and training for your staff.
6
Monitoring and maintenance
Remote monitoring, preventive visits, panel cleaning and battery health reports.

Documents and support you can rely on

A written proposal with system sizing and a diesel cost comparison
Single-line diagram and as-built drawings

Maintenance plans that keep output high

Dust on panels and ageing batteries quietly reduce output. Every plan includes remote monitoring and a monthly report on energy generated, diesel avoided, battery health and uptime.

Basic

For small systems with staff on site.

  • Remote monitoring of inverter and batteries
  • Monthly performance report
  • One preventive maintenance visit a year

Standard

For offices, schools and clinics that depend on the system every day.

  • Everything in Basic
  • Quarterly preventive visits with panel cleaning
  • Next-business-day response in Monrovia

Premium

For server rooms, camps and sites where downtime is costly.

  • Everything in Standard
  • Monthly preventive visits
  • 4-hour response in Monrovia, with spares held on site

Payment options

Outright purchase
You own the system from commissioning, with manufacturer warranties and our support.
Staged payments
Tied to project milestones, such as order, delivery and commissioning.
Ask about lease-to-own
For established organisations, a fixed term subject to approval.

Every proposal sets out the full system cost and a payment schedule before work starts. Maintenance plans are priced per site; response times outside Monrovia and across borders are agreed per site. See our service levels.

Frequently asked questions

Does solar work during the rainy season?
Yes. Output drops on overcast days, so we size panels and batteries for rainy-season output and keep the grid or your generator as backup.
What happens at night?
The batteries carry your critical loads for the hours agreed at design stage. When they run low, the system switches to the grid or starts your generator automatically.
How long do the batteries last?
LiFePO4 batteries are rated for thousands of charge cycles; real life depends on depth of discharge and room temperature. We design for both and report battery health every month.
Can we keep our existing generator and UPS?
Usually, yes. The generator becomes the backup and runs far less, and the UPS keeps servers on during switchover.
Who handles warranty claims?
We do. We diagnose the fault, file the claim with the manufacturer and arrange the repair or replacement, so you deal with one local team.

What does your generator cost to run?

A quick estimate of your diesel spend. If you know your actual fuel bill, use that instead: it is more accurate.

Default: Liberia retail price in April 2026.

Estimated diesel spend
Per week
–
Per month
–
Per year
–

About – litres (– gallons) of diesel a week.

How we calculate this: generator size (kVA) × 0.8 power factor × average load × running hours gives the energy produced. We assume about 0.3 litres of diesel per kWh (roughly 3.3 kWh per litre), then convert at 3.785 litres per gallon. Week = days per week × daily cost; month = week × 52 ÷ 12; year = week × 52.

This is an estimate of fuel cost only. It excludes servicing, repairs and generator replacement, and it is not a quote or a promise of savings. A site survey and load audit show what solar could save at your site.
