Off-grid solar, tracked for life

Every solar lantern has a story. Until now, no one wrote it down.

SolisTrack is a permissioned, tamper-evident ledger that follows each device through its whole life — sale, repair, ownership transfer, dormancy, collection, and recycling — so the off-grid solar sector finally has a record it can stand behind.

Works where the signal doesn't.

Field technicians capture every service visit on the spot, no matter how far from a tower. SolisTrack queues it locally and reconciles automatically the moment a connection returns — the record never falls behind reality.

The opportunity

~10 million devices. One record away from accountable.

Kenya's off-grid solar boom built a market with no verifiable end-of-life trail — and a regulatory mandate, the NEMA EPR Regulations 2023, that's about to require one. SolisTrack is the infrastructure that closes that gap.

Device compatibility

Built to track hardware already in the field.

SolisTrack's ledger works with devices from the equipment brands already selling and installing across East Africa — no proprietary hardware required, no brand locked out.

The problem

Millions of devices. No record of what happens to them.

Compliance no one can audit

Extended Producer Responsibility rules ask manufacturers and importers to account for devices at end of life. Without device-level records, that reporting is effectively unverifiable.

Batteries with nowhere to go

When a lantern or home system reaches the end of its useful life, there is often no visible, trusted channel back to a recycler — so devices sit dormant, get discarded informally, or simply disappear from view.

Disconnected paper trails

Sales, repairs, and transfers are usually recorded — if at all — in separate systems belonging to separate companies. No one holds the full picture of a single device's life.

How it works

One ledger, eight stages, five roles.

Every device gets a durable identity the moment it's registered. From there, each stage of its life is added to a shared record — visible to whoever is permitted to see it, and impossible to quietly rewrite.

01

Register

Device gets a QR identity tied to model, batch, and origin.

02

Distribute

Custody moves from manufacturer to distributor, logged at each handoff.

03

Sell

Sale to the end user is recorded, starting the device's ownership history.

04

Repair

Field technicians log service visits and part replacements against the same ID.

05

Transfer

Resale or handover to a new owner updates custody without losing history.

06

Dormancy

Extended inactivity is flagged automatically, surfacing devices nearing end of life.

07

Collect

The device is routed to a verified collection point, ready for recycling.

08

Recycle

A licensed recycler closes the loop, and the record becomes an auditable EPR line item.

What SolisTrack does

Everything a device's life needs, in one shared system.

Shared lifecycle ledger

One tamper-evident record per device, updated at every stage and visible to every permitted party.

QR device identity

A scannable identity on every unit ties physical devices to their digital record in seconds.

Offline-first sync

Field updates are captured with no signal and reconciled automatically once connectivity returns.

EPR reconciliation reporting

Regulators get device-level, auditable reports instead of estimates and self-attestation.

Recycler locator

Owners and collectors find the nearest verified recycling point when a device reaches end of life.

Role-based access

Users, technicians, distributors, recyclers, and regulators each see exactly what their role needs.

Who it's for

Five roles. One record they can all trust.

Solar Users

Proof of ownership and warranty, in hand.

Field Technicians

Full service history, even offline.

Distributors

Custody and inventory, always current.

Recyclers

A verified pipeline of incoming devices.

Regulators

Auditable EPR data, on demand.

For funders & partners

A market-sized problem, with a regulatory deadline attached.

This isn't a pilot looking for a market. The market already exists — it just has no record.

A market already in place

~10 million off-grid solar devices are already sold and in use across Kenya — with zero shared record of what happens to them next.

Compliance is becoming mandatory

Kenya's NEMA EPR Regulations, 2023 require producers to account for devices at end of life — turning device-level tracking from a nice-to-have into a requirement.

A record that compounds

Every scan, repair, and hand-off adds to a ledger no later entrant can retroactively recreate — the earlier it runs, the harder it is to replicate.
