The Challenge – Improving Rural Water Access
The KISIMA project aimed to upgrade water infrastructure in 11 communities across Kiteto and Simanjiro districts. Oikos East Africa, a Tanzanian NGO, partnered with GadgetroniX to replace costly diesel-powered pumps, which were inefficient and required frequent maintenance.
Our team installed three solar-powered water systems to enhance water access. These systems are designed for long-term sustainability, providing reliable clean water to thousands of residents.
Renewable Solution – Solar Water Pump Installation
To ensure durability and efficiency, GadgetroniX implemented AC current solar water pumping systems to replace diesel generators.
