ennos develops high-efficiency solar water pumps for smallholder farmers and produces them together with strong African manufacturing partners. By combining Swiss engineering with African production, ennos ensures that technology, value, and expertise stay close to the communities that use them.
ennos accelerates Africa’s green transition by strengthening regional value chains and building long-term technical capacity. Our approach is simple: manufacture closer to end users, expand local expertise, and support resilient, climate-friendly industries.
Local Manufacturing – Value Stays in Africa
ennos works with leading African companies that produce key components of the 1.5HP Sunlight Pump directly on the continent.
Innovex – Uganda In Kampala, Innovex manufactures the controller for the 1.5HP Sunlight Pump and integrates its in-house IoT innovation, the REMOT Monitoring Unit (RMU). This combination of electronics production and IoT development contributes directly to Uganda’s growing technology ecosystem.
NETZSCH – South Africa NETZSCH is responsible for the complete development and production of the pump head and for the final assembly of the 1.5HP Sunlight Pump. This advanced industrial work strengthens South Africa’s manufacturing capabilities in renewable-energy technologies.
Together, these partnerships ensure that industrial know-how and economic value remain in Africa, supporting regional industry development and long-term climate resilience.
Job Creation Across the Value Chain
ennos’ decision to localize manufacturing is directly reflected in real and sustained job creation. Through controller production in Uganda and pump-head development and assembly in South Africa, ennos enables skilled roles in electronics assembly, mechanical fabrication, testing, quality assurance, warehousing, and logistics. These are not theoretical benefits — these jobs exist today and continue to grow as production scales.
Beyond manufacturing, ennos’ distribution and service model generates additional employment in installation, commissioning, maintenance, and customer support. By producing key components in Africa rather than importing finished products, ennos strengthens the region’s technical workforce and supports a locally anchored renewable-energy industry.
