Aptech Africa Powers Lifesaving Oxygen Production with Solar Energy in Eritrea

Aptech Africa has delivered a groundbreaking 251.97 kWp hybrid solar PV system with 460.8 kWh battery storage to power the oxygen production plant at Mendefera Hospital in Eritrea. This highly engineered system blends clean solar energy with national grid supply, creating a reliable, uninterrupted power source for one of the region’s most vital medical facilities. The system features ground-mounted arrays paired with Deye hybrid inverters, optimized for efficiency and long-term performance.

This intervention arrives at a critical moment for the region, where fluctuating grid power previously limited the hospital’s ability to continuously produce medical oxygen. Today, the hybrid system ensures that oxygen generation remains stable and fully operational—enabling urgent care, surgical procedures, maternal support, and treatment of respiratory illnesses without interruption..

Beyond powering equipment, this project catalyzes transformative social impact. Reliable oxygen supply strengthens medical outcomes for thousands of patients in Mendefera Hospital, while reduced energy costs allow more resources to be redirected to medical services, staffing, and essential equipment. By integrating renewable energy into the healthcare ecosystem, the project contributes directly to national resilience, resource optimization, and improved public health infrastructure in Eritrea

.More than a technical installation, this project reflects Aptech Africa’s commitment to delivering purpose-driven energy solutions that go beyond expectations. The result is an energy system that does more than generate power—it empowers a healthcare facility to save lives, today and for years to come.
