A World Energy Outlook Special Report on the state of African Energy reveals that Sub-Saharan Africa has the largest community of people without access to electricity as of 2014. More importantly, the study indicates it is the only region in the world where population growth is outpacing large-scale energy developments, leading to an increasing number of people without any access to electricity.

USPE-LY aims to help bridge the gap between power supply and demand by providing intelligent, scalable, modular bridge power solutions to communities, power companies, and government agencies in African and other countries.

Introducing A New & Flexible Power Technology

Bridge power is a system that is designed to meet increases in power demand by diverting the critical load from a strained power source to a stable alternative source as soon as stress is detected. As soon as power surge sensors detect a dramatic increase in demand within the system, alternative power sources are activated. This technology alleviates the pressure to create and distribute electricity from the grid, and transitions it to a backup power supply, thus preventing grid failure.

For energy companies, this translates to a flexible solution to power hubs and facilities that need maintenance, replacements, and upgrades for more efficient technologies. Through scalable bridge power solutions, instances of power outages can be minimised, while opportunities to improve grid energy efficiency can be maximised.
