Wecass Braun a German- based lightening company has introduced ground-breaking solar lighting innovations that promise to revolutionize energy efficiency and sustainability.
Speaking with Journalists in Lagos, Andre Braun, Chief Executive Officer, Wecass Braun, the mastermind behind the innovation explained the need for sustainable and future-proof technologies in Nigeria.
He said that the latest lighting and solar technologies were carefully selected to cater to the country’s growing needs. He further explained that the street lights are remotely monitored and controlled from a central location, adding that the lights can be installed in one city and managed from another.
André Braun emphasized the importance of training and customer satisfaction.
“The showroom serves as a practical training venue for employees and students, providing hands-on experience with the latest technologies. The goal is to train enough personnel to open offices in other states, offering the same level of service and expertise across the country”.
“We wanted to create a special place to showcase the latest lighting and solar technologies. Because it is very difficult to find the right products on the world market if you are not an expert, and new ones are added every day. We have taken this time-consuming work off your hands and show you, dear guests, the latest technology in this unique place.
“For example, our street lights, which are installed in one city and can be monitored and switched from another city in a control room. Nigeria needs the latest and most sustainable technologies. These must be future-proof for an emerging and growing nation. We want customers and infrastructure programmes across Nigeria to rely on sustainable and future-proof products. That’s why we want our work to help them choose first-class and long-lasting products”, he said.
According to him, they have their waterproof solar carport installed in their Nigeria showroom including a training facility.
“I am convinced that this open showroom will be well received. Because customers are often overwhelmed by the huge range of solar and lighting technology, we are showing outstanding products here in Lagos. It is therefore unnecessary to travel to completely overcrowded trade fairs to visit overstretched and stressed exhibitors abroad. Here we take the time to talk about your projects and find the perfect solution together. Everything from a single source, including installation, is precisely tailored to your project. Be it energy supply or lighting or something completely different’’, he said.
In his remarks, Forster Onyeka Edward , Chief Executive Officer, Nigeria said, “We’re in Nigeria because of a special vision we share. My best friend, Andre, and I have spent almost three years brainstorming in his office, determined to create something that would move not only Nigeria but Africa forward. We believe Nigeria has the capacity to take the lead, and we want to support that.”
