LiFePO4 Solar Batteries and Energy Storage for African Distributors
SunoraX supplies LiFePO4 energy storage to distributors, importers and installers across Africa: home batteries that work with common off-grid and hybrid inverters, 1 and 2 kWh home backup units, portable power stations, foldable solar panels and commercial storage. Models can be mixed in one container and ship FOB China, with the configuration for each destination country confirmed in the quotation.
What buyers in Africa ask for
- Backup during grid outages: batteries that reduce petrol and diesel generator runtime in homes, shops, offices and clinics.
- Off-grid power: systems for farms, schools, rural businesses and sites without a reliable grid connection, often with a generator as the second source.
- Solar self-consumption: storing daytime solar for the evening where electricity tariffs keep rising.
- Portable power: power stations for traders, field work, events and small backup loads.
Which mix sells depends on the country and the channel. Send us your market and customer type and we propose a first order.

Grid, plugs and documents by destination country
Plug type, AC voltage and frequency, grid settings and documents are confirmed for each destination country in the quotation. Standard documents by model are CE, UN38.3, MSDS and IEC battery safety reports. Where a country needs its own approval, we check with our manufacturing partner what can be supplied before you order; local registration stays with the importer.
Shipping FOB China
- Orders for Africa ship FOB China. You or your forwarder book the sea freight to your port.
- LiFePO4 batteries travel as class 9 dangerous goods (UN3480 or UN3481). The UN38.3 test summary and the safety data sheet come with the shipping documents.
- Power stations, batteries, racks and panels can be mixed in one container.
- Minimum order, price and lead time are confirmed per model in the written quotation.
Warranty and service
- Warranty: 2 years for portable products and panels, 10 years for home batteries; commercial systems per project.
- Technical cases are answered within one business day, by video call or log review.
- We recommend a spare-parts kit matched to your order, so most cases are solved locally instead of shipping batteries back.
