Renewable energy firm Solarise Africa has partnered with Rubis Energy Kenya to launch a joint venture (JV) named Rubisol, aimed at delivering renewable energy solutions to commercial and industrial businesses in East Africa.
The Rubisol JV seeks to address the region’s growing demand for decentralized power systems as businesses increasingly turn away from unreliable national grid supplies.
By providing locally produced, reliable, and affordable energy, the partnership aims to support economic growth and energy sustainability in Kenya and beyond.
“Our expertise in decentralized solar and other energy solutions, combined with RUBiS’s strong market presence, will unlock new possibilities and empower businesses to thrive,” said Jan Albert Valk, Co-Founder and CEO of Solarise Africa.
Olivier Sabrie, Group Managing Director of Rubis Energy Kenya, added, “With this partnership, we are taking a significant step toward a sustainable future.
RUBiSOL will not only enhance our energy portfolio but also offer our clients innovative and sustainable energy solutions.”
Further underscoring its commitment to renewable energy, Rubis Energy Kenya announced plans to install solar panels across its stations and depots, aligning with its decarbonization objectives and reinforcing its transition towards a greener future.
