ONESUN's Strategic Expansion in Burkina Faso: Building a New Future in Solar and Energy Storage Industry Together with Local Partners

 

In 2026, as the global energy transition continues to accelerate, Africa is emerging as one of the most promising growth regions for new energy investments. Among these, Burkina Faso, with its abundant solar resources, continuously improving policy environment, and urgent electricity demand, is rapidly becoming an important strategic hub for the West African photovoltaic and energy storage market. Against this backdrop, ONESUN, a world-renowned battery brand manufacturer, has formally launched a strategic plan to identify local cooperation partners in Burkina Faso and jointly establish manufacturing facilities, comprehensively advancing the localized production layout for solar energy storage and lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries.

 

 

Government Support and Market Opportunities

 

In recent years, the Burkina Faso government has vigorously promoted green energy development, explicitly committing to increase the proportion of renewable energy, with a special focus on supporting solar power generation and energy storage system construction. The nation has opened up its electricity market, introduced Independent Power Producer (IPP) mechanisms, and promoted Public-Private Partnership (PPP) cooperation models, providing a stable and sustainable investment environment for international enterprises. Simultaneously, through multiple policy incentives including tax exemptions, financing support, and rural electrification projects, the photovoltaic and energy storage industry is experiencing unprecedented development opportunities. Particularly in off-grid and weak-grid areas, solar plus storage has become the core solution for addressing power shortage challenges.

 

ONESUN's Cooperation Model

 

It is precisely under this dual drive of policy and market dynamics that ONESUN has proposed a cooperation model of "localized manufacturing + technology transfer + joint development". The company plans to establish joint venture factories with local Burkina Faso enterprises, energy companies, or government platforms. Through SKD/CKD (Semi-Knocked Down/Completely-Knocked Down) production modes, ONESUN will achieve local assembly and production of batteries and energy storage systems. This approach not only significantly reduces transportation and tariff costs but also enhances project delivery efficiency and meets government requirements for localization rates.

 

 

Comprehensive Product Portfolio

 

As a leading global new energy solutions provider, ONESUN possesses a complete product portfolio covering multiple high-growth application scenarios. Core products include:

High-performance telecommunication base station batteries: Specifically designed for Africa's unstable grid environment, featuring long cycle life and exceptional safety.

Integrated solar systems: Combining photovoltaic generation, energy storage, and inverter control, suitable for household and small commercial users.

Commercial and industrial energy storage systems (BESS): Supporting large-scale energy management and peak shaving/valley filling operations.

Innovative PAYGO (Pay-As-You-Go) solar products: Significantly lowering the threshold for end-user adoption, particularly suitable for rural and low-income areas.

 

 

Technical Excellence and Quality Assurance

 

On the technical front, ONESUN utilizes high-quality lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) battery cells featuring over 6,000 cycles of lifespan and exceptional thermal stability, ensuring stable operation even in high-temperature environments. The company maintains a rigorous quality control system and provides reliable OEM and ODM customization services to B2B clients worldwide, meeting the diverse needs of different countries and projects.

 

 

Why Choose ONESUN

 

Choosing ONESUN means not only selecting high-quality products but also partnering with a long-term collaborator possessing extensive global project experience and strong localization execution capabilities. The company has successfully implemented solar and energy storage projects in multiple developing countries, accumulating rich EPC integration experience and market understanding. ONESUN is capable of providing one-stop solutions to partners, from product supply and technical support to project implementation.

 

 

Looking ahead, ONESUN will continue to deepen its presence in the African market, using Burkina Faso as an important strategic foothold to radiate across the entire West Africa region and build a localized new energy industry ecosystem. The company warmly invites local enterprises with resource advantages to join the cooperation, jointly advancing green energy adoption and achieving a win-win outcome of economic development and energy transformation.
