Energy solutions company REDAVIA has created a new concessionary solar power programme, dubbed COVID-19 Resilience Lease, to support Ghanaian and Kenyan businesses to mitigate the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
COVID-19 has disrupted African businesses significantly. In this challenging time, REDAVIA enables sound businesses to reduce their operating costs with a free solar plant leasing service.
The energy company has introduced the COVID-19 Resilience Lease, which provides solar power plants to business customers for six months, completely for free.
After these six months, customers can choose to roll-over this Lease into a regular solar plant lease or request REDAVIA to re-deploy the plant.
This offer is available to selected long-term sustainable Ghanaian and Kenyan companies on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.
Mankoadze Fisheries in Tema, Ghana, was first to sign a lease. Godfried Kwame Anafi, Director of Mankoadze Fisheries, is eager to see the restart of his company’s cold store and resumption of service to the corporate and independent fishing customers as soon as possible.
The Royal Senchi Hotel & Resort has also joined this unique programme. The hotel has been especially hard hit by the pandemic and saw its occupancy rates drop precipitously.
Big losses in revenue made lowering utility costs a top priority for hotel management. Gerard Schraven, General Manager, said: “REDAVIA’s solar plant will enable us to keep our energy cost as low as possible when the hotel re-opens after this global health crisis.”
Erwin Spolders, CEO & founder of REDAVIA, said: “REDAVIA understands the economic implications of this pandemic, and we pledge to be a true friend to our business partners in this time of need.”
