Kisawa, Benguerra Island

Southern Africa

Overview

Kisawa Sanctuary is a luxury eco-resort located on the southern tip of Benguerra Island in Mozambique, blending high-end hospitality with a deep commitment to sustainability. Surrounded by pristine beaches and marine reserves, the sanctuary is dedicated to protecting local ecosystems while offering guests an immersive, environmentally conscious experience.

This pristine island has no electricity power producer so solar was a natural solution to ensure that this beautiful lodge has uninterrupted access to renewable energy. NSE designed and built an off-grid, ground-mounted solar and battery system, featuring an 801.15 kW solar plant paired with a 2140.5 kWh battery energy storage system (BESS). This setup ensures reliable, renewable power for the remote island location while minimising environmental impact.
