EnerDynamic Hybrid Technologies Corp. (EHT) has announced that its joint venture company Maple Leaf Energy S.A. (MLE), has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to install EHT's proprietary hybrid energy systems and supply power to 125,000 private residences in the Republic of Senegal in West Africa.
The terms of the MOU call for EHT, through its subsidiary MLE, to provide and install 125,000 of its hybrid solar and wind systems over the next 5 years. The selected residence, determined by the National Agency for Renewable Energy (ANER), will be designed to function entirely off-grid. Additionally, by incorporating EHT's new Smart Box Technology, each residence will not only produce electricity for consumption in that residence (and store a reserve) but will also distribute surplus energy into the power grid. Each selected residence will receive a system of between 1 Kilowatt and 5 Kilowatts of energy with the average requirement estimated at 2.5 Kilowatts. EHT anticipates that it will start to supply its systems for installation commencing in early 2015.
