PaygOps & SolarWorX partner to support distributors in delivering outstanding after-sales services
PaygOps and SolarWorX are thrilled to announce their partnership aiming at facilitating energy access and support at the last-mile for installations up to 500Wp.
SolarWorX is a German manufacturer with active pilots in West Africa focusing on modular solar homes & business systems development called “Solego” (see illustration below).
Through SolarWorX’s technology, it is made possible to stack multiple systems with each 80Wh or 160Wh, allowing the battery capacity to increase and high-power appliances to be operated up to 500Wp (e.g. water pumps, grinder). The basic system comes with a touchless, dimmable LED lights, a submersible water pump and other efficient appliances.
“We are convinced since the early days that flexibility in both hardware and SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) offerings are a must have to scale in this industry. We are seduced by SolarWorX’s offering and are convinced by the key value they defend: modularity,” says Solaris Offrgid and PaygOps CEO Siten Mandalia.
SolarWorX supports ambitious solar distributors looking at offering either substantial energy use at home and/or productive use of energy. “With such increases in installed capacity, often comes the requirement of stronger aftersales capabilities,” insists Charlène Giraudier, Director of Operations and Customer Success at PaygOps. “In our experience, the bigger the installation becomes, the more the ultimate-user values the after-sales services’ provided around his/her installation, such as trouble-shooting reactiveness.”
This is where PaygOps features can make the difference. Felix Bolt, CEO of SolarWorX points out that “to support our productive use focus, a professional Paygo platform becomes crucial for our distributors. With its long track record, PaygOps is the ideal partner for our innovative and straight forward approach. Our distribution partners as well as their customers will benefit from a reliable software platform together with reliable hardware. We're looking forward towards a successful partnership in particular when it comes to future developments like decentral micro-grids”.
