BBOXX Solar Light is For All

The dream of every household having electricity in Sierra Leone is becoming a reality as the newly-established company, BBOXX-SL Limited is taking the lead in providing affordable solar energy to all.

BBOXX, situated at 34 Wellington Street in central Freetown, deals in solar energy for both domestic and industrial use.  Its parent body, based in the United Kingdom is one of the renowned solar energy companies providing sustainable solar energy in the world. Wordsworth Shonubi Cole, Managing Director of BBOXX SL Ltd, informed this medium in an interview that Sierra Leone is one of eight countries in Africa where BBOXX is currently operating and that their product has proven to be cost-effective, especially in rural areas where electricity is non-available. He continued that during the company’s feasibility study, the need to extend its product to rural areas as a backup to the national grid was discovered and is a priority for the company. According to Mr. Cole, their smallest product, the battery box 5 kit (BB5) can power four bulbs, charge phones and any 12 volts (DC) equipment while the BB7, BB12 and BB17 are all solar kits that can power homes with basic light and entertainment.

He also stressed the need for every home to use BBOXX products now as they are very durable, environmentally friendly and cost-effective enlightening that they have a charge controller unit that protects the battery from over charging and that the battery has a life span of three to five years depending on the usage.

Mr. Cole further stated that BBOXX is in Sierra Leone to meet the demands of the people adding “one good thing about the company’s product is that it cuts across every form of usage. It can be used for both domestic and industrial. The cost of one generator can give consumers a one-off solar solution, cutting the cost of fuel and maintenance among others.”

The Managing Director further disclosed that BBOXX SL. Ltd has a maintenance team trained by the company but assured that the rate of damage is minimal reiterating, “I want the grassroots to know that life has changed and there is so much benefit in using BBOXX solar energy.”

BBOXX solar products are available in various sizes up to 25 KVA installations. Furthermore, the company deals in solar products such as television sets, laptop chargers and water pumps among others adding that even if one is living in a single room, he/she can now enjoy electricity with BBOXX solar energy.

The company also provides rental services for those wishing to go out on outings or social activities concluding that BBOXX SL offers three months rental service and urged the public to call at the company’s 34 Wellington Street headquarters in Freetown.
