Solar Photovoltaic / PV Namibia
Namibia has the highest sun radiation levels in the world in comparison with the other countries. And it definitely should be used: the sun energy converted to electricity has many applications which has gained a huge acceptance over the recent years mainly due to constant increase in tariffs and availability of electricity.
NEC Power & Pumps are pioneers in these field of having introduced solar PV systems in Namibia to the Telecom and Broadcasting Corporation in the early 1970.
Learn more about the advantages and applications of the Solar Grid Tied Systems and the Off-Grid Systems in Namibia.
Solar Grid Tied Systems
The solar energy generated by the solar panels is converted to AC power by the Grid Tied Inverter and fed into the AC Grid. Because of the technical conception of the Grid Tied systems, energy generated is consumed immediately. A possible surplus access to energy will be fed into the public grid against compensation.
Main advantages of Solar Grid Tied Systems
- 25 years performance output
- No running cost
- 3 – 4 years return of investment
- Independent on increase in tariffs.
Island / Off-Grid Systems
Solar Off-Grid systems are used in areas where there is no utility power. In vast remote regions where there is no electrical grid supply, a Solar Photovoltaic Off-Grid System is the answer to electrical needs. Also known as Stand-Alone or Island Systems, they are totally independent of the Electrical Grid.
Applications for the off-grid systems are mainly for farms, lodges, remote villages, and transmission stations.
Lithium Ion Solar Batteries
A lithium-ion battery or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery, which can additionally be installed to store that energy produced during daytime hours and which is not used. This can be done whether you already have a Solar System in Namibia or you intend to have one installed.
In most cases, lithium-ion batteries are the best option for a solar panel system, though other battery types can be more affordable. But one should consider their longevity and efficiency, making Li-ion batteries economically more appealing and calculated over the long term, they work out a lot less costly.
By coupling Li-ion batteries with solar a Solar PV System you are not only saving money, but you are becoming independent from your electricity provider, e.g. Nampower.
Adding to NEC Power & Pumps’ range of high-quality products, the FreedomWon Li-ion batteries perfectly combine performance, safety and longevity in the field of energy storage systems.
The flexibly expandable high-performance Li-Ion storage is ideally suitable for all solar systems – from home to industry.
FreedomWon batteries have been proven to work well in combination with the SMA or VICTRON inverters.
SMA and VICTRON are high-quality PV inverters and innovative technology for all photovoltaic applications, proven to be reliable through harsh environments and complex projects.
Features
• AXIstorage’s modular design enables flexibility.
• Compact design with a Height x Width x Depth of: 536 x 675 x 475 mm
• Flexibly expandable from units available from 5kWh and can be expanded to the clients requirements with units of 160kWh and more
Main advantages of storing Solar Power
- Safety-tested technology in compliance with the latest standards
- Suitable for new and existing solar systems
- Integrated multi-level safety concept
- Simple expansion of the plant size and battery capacity
- 20 – 30 years’ service life through optimized cooling system, depending on use

FAQ's
It is common knowledge that Namibia has the highest solar radiation levels in the world. Solar energy is a free energy source and will never disappear. Therefore, NEC has been promoting solar energy since the early 1970s and offers solar system in Namibia.
- Solar energy is a green energy, generating way less polution and using one of the free ressource of Namibia: its sun.
- Namibia is buying most of its electricity from South Africa. Prices are increasing and availability is getting low. Therefore, solar energy is the best option!
- There will be less transmission losses because Solar energy can generate power exactly where it is needed. Also, it will be beneficial for the Namibian economy.
Solahart solar panels last between 25 and 30 years.
