The Freedom Won LiTE Commercial 100/80 (52 V) LiFePO₄ battery is a high-capacity energy storage system designed for commercial and industrial applications. Offering a 100 kWh nominal capacity (with about 80 kWh usable at 80 % depth of discharge) and robust performance metrics such as high cycle life and efficiency, this battery is built to provide reliable energy storage for demanding operations. In the Tanzanian market it is particularly well-positioned to serve businesses such as factories, hotels, telecom sites, and off-grid or weak-grid installations seeking to improve reliability, optimize solar self-consumption, reduce diesel generator usage, or offer backup power.
Features
- High capacity (100 kWh) in a single unit: enables significant storage without multiple small batteries.
- Long cycle life: designed for thousands of cycles, meaning many years of service.
- High efficiency: minimal losses in charge/discharge means more usable energy and lower waste.
- LiFePO₄ chemistry: known for better thermal stability, safety, long life compared to older lead-acid or other lithium types.
- Advanced BMS & monitoring: real-time state of charge display, CAN-bus interface enables integration with controllers/inverters.
- Indoor-rated rugged enclosure: suitable for commercial installations under roof or in dedicated battery room.
- Flexibility in system sizing: the “LiTE Commercial” range allows multiple units for scalability.
- Compatibility: Works with a variety of inverter systems (noted in documentation for compatibility with brands like Victron Energy) via CAN-bus.
Use-Cases
- For the Tanzanian market, this battery is suitable for a number of commercial/industrial applications:
- Solar-coupled commercial installations: e.g., a hotel or lodge with a rooftop PV system can pair this battery to store daytime solar, shift energy to evening peaks, reduce reliance on grid/diesel, make the facility more resilient.
- Telecom or data centre sites: Tanzania has remote telecom base-stations where grid may be unreliable; this battery can provide backup or integration with solar + diesel hybrid systems.
- Production facilities or manufacturing plants: where load is heavy and uninterrupted supply matters. The battery can smooth fluctuations, provide peak-shaving, or act as backup.
- Island, off-grid or weak-grid installations: In rural or mining settings where grid is low quality or unavailable, the battery provides storage for solar or generator systems.
- Commercial buildings (shopping centres, educational campuses, hospitals) which want to ensure continuity of power, manage energy costs and integrate storage for resilience.
Value Propositions
- Within Tanzania, where energy supply can be intermittent, tariffs may be high, and diesel generation common, a robust energy storage solution represents a strategic asset. The Freedom Won LiTE Commercial 100/80 offers high capacity, long lifespan and reliability — which positions it as an investment rather than just a cost.
- For businesses, shifting consumption from expensive peak grid or generator power to stored solar energy can yield real savings and competitive advantage.
- With more attention on renewable energy in East Africa, deploying a lithium storage system signals alignment with international standards and future-proofing.
- The modular nature allows for phased investment: install one unit now and add more as demand grows.
- The safety, monitoring and durability reduces risk for investors/operators in harsh ambient conditions, which is relevant in Tanzania’s climatic environment.
Local Market Positioning Tips
- Highlight the long cycle life: emphasise how many years of operation can be expected, which is a differentiator from cheaper lead-acid solutions.
- Emphasise compatibility with solar installations: many Tanzanian projects are solar + battery or hybrid; stress that the LiTE Commercial integrates with inverters/controllers widely used in the region.
- Stress value beyond just backup: not only does it provide emergency power, but also enables load shifting, peak shaving, diesel reduction, and energy cost control.
- Account for ambient conditions: note that installations must consider site conditions — indoor or sheltered battery room, temperature control, proper ventilation and safety compliance.
- Provide local support/maintenance plan: for a high-value asset, local service, training or partnership with Tanzanian installers will increase confidence.
- Offer finance/leasing options or pay-back calculations: show potential ROI in a Tanzanian context (diesel cost saved, grid outages avoided, maintenance savings).
- Tailor to specific sectors: tourism (lodges, hotels), agriculture (irrigation pumping with solar + storage), telecoms, mining camps — speak their language and show that the capacity (100 kWh) means they can store large loads.
- Emphasise lifespan and warranty: buyers should understand that although upfront cost is higher than older technologies, the lifetime cost per kWh stored is far better owing to durability and efficiency.
