Our Solutions

End-to-end energy solutions.

From a single household to an entire community — certified products of the highest quality, backed by warranties and our own technical team.

Infrastructure & Community Solutions

Renewable energy for communities and public infrastructure — solar home systems, solar streetlighting, solar-powered WASH solutions, and productive use energy systems.

Institutional Power

Reliable solar and battery solutions for schools, hospitals, government facilities, utilities and commercial institutions.

SME & Tourism Energy

Renewable energy solutions helping businesses reduce operating costs, improve energy reliability and strengthen operational resilience.

Backup & Hybrid BESS

Hybrid solar and battery storage systems providing reliable backup power, improved power quality and enhanced energy resilience.

Mini-Grids

Decentralised power grids that electrify entire remote communities — designed, installed and commissioned by PowerOn.

Quality & Compliance

Tier-1 technology backed by genuine manufacturer warranties, recognised engineering standards and professional installation practices.

How it works — Full Life-Cycle Project Management

From site visit to switch-on, and beyond.

Our team manages the entire project life cycle — so you deal with one accountable partner from first assessment to long-term operations.

STEP 01

Site Assessment

We visit your site, measure your load, and understand what you need to power.

STEP 02

System Design & Engineering

Engineers design a compliant system tailored to your load, site and budget.

STEP 03

Procurement & Delivery

Tier-1 certified equipment procured and delivered to your site, anywhere in PNG.

STEP 04

Installation & Commissioning

Certified technicians install and commission to national and international standards.

STEP 05

Operations, Maintenance & Support

After-sales service, maintenance, remote support and training — long after switch-on.

Why PowerOn

The sun doesn't send a bill.

Diesel is expensive and unsustainable — rising fuel prices, transport costs and constant maintenance. PNG has world-class sunlight; PowerOn turns it into reliable power, done properly.
