Sustainable Solutions with Built Assets

At Built Assets, we are committed to delivering sustainable building and energy solutions adapted to the realities of West Africa.
As construction projects continue to grow across the region, the demand for renewable energy, energy efficiency, and sustainable design has become increasingly critical.
Our solutions are designed to maximize profitability, ensure continuous power supply, and reduce the environmental footprint of every project.

Our Commitment to Sustainability: EDGE Certification

To ensure that all our projects meet international standards for sustainability and environmental responsibility, Built Assets has obtained the EDGE Certification (Excellence in Design for Greater Efficiencies), developed by the IFC – World Bank Group.
This certification demonstrates our commitment to projects that:

• Reduce energy consumption in buildings.

• Optimize water and resource efficiency.

• Use sustainable materials to minimize ecological impact.

EDGE certification enables us to deliver projects that are both economically viable and environmentally responsible, while enhancing building performance and long-term value.

Our Energy Solutions for West Africa

1. Solar Energy – Harnessing the Power of the Sun

West Africa benefits from abundant sunlight year-round, making solar energy an ideal solution for residential, commercial, and industrial projects.
We install high-performance solar systems designed to produce clean energy and reduce reliance on non-renewable sources.
Each system is tailored to local conditions for reliable and cost-effective operation.

Advantages of solar energy:

• Long-term reduction in energy costs.

• Renewable and eco-friendly energy source.

• Reliable performance in high-sunlight regions.

• Adaptable to projects of all sizes.

2. Energy Storage Systems – Ensuring Continuous Power Supply

One of the main challenges in West Africa is the reliability of the power grid.
To address this, we integrate energy storage systems that allow excess solar power to be stored and used during low-sunlight periods or outages.

Our systems include intelligent batteries and energy management technologies, ensuring uninterrupted power even during grid interruptions.

Advantages of energy storage systems:

• Constant power supply, even outside solar production hours.

• Reduced dependency on unstable grids.

• Optimized use of renewable energy sources.

3. Hybrid Energy Solutions – A Flexible and Optimized Approach

For certain projects, a hybrid system may be the best solution.
We design systems that combine solar energy with generators or other power sources to ensure a reliable energy supply in diverse conditions.

Hybrid solutions are especially effective in areas with variable sunlight or unreliable grids, offering energy flexibility and security.

Advantages of hybrid solutions:

• Flexibility to adapt to specific project needs.

• Reduced operational costs through multiple energy sources.

• Ideal for regions with limited grid reliability.

4. Energy Efficiency Optimization – Reducing Consumption

At Built Assets, we emphasize energy efficiency through smart design and advanced technologies.
By optimizing building orientation, insulation, and integrating intelligent systems, we reduce energy consumption while improving overall building performance.

Advantages of energy efficiency optimization:

• Long-term reduction in operational costs.

• Lower carbon footprint for every project.

• Better management of energy resources and maintenance costs.
