In October 2023, Batrica installed its first off-grid station in Chad. Since then, the small start-up has come a long way. With 25 stations now installed in rural villages across Chad, the company has broken rental records in recent months.
In mid-July 2025, the 500,000 rental milestone was reached, a figure that not only demonstrates that our solution is useful, but also that there is a need for it, which encourages us to continue.
One month after this record, Batrica has added 50,000 more rentals, a first and a source of great pride for our entire team!
In addition, a new record for daily rentals has been set. By renting out 2,444 batteries in just 24 hours, the team has demonstrated its growing commitment, allowing us to envisage a third phase in the coming months.
Today, we have 7,000 active customers per month, representing approximately 7,000 Chadian households benefiting from our solution. We are proud to offer them a real alternative to meet their energy needs!
