Bringing together Cafu, SirajPower, and Creek, this venture will bring a new innovative on-demand solution to the market that provides a green and sustainable energy source, thereby committing to meaningful action to help enable a carbon-neutral future.  In our endeavors to become a fuel agnostic company, it is collaborations such as HYPR that will accelerate sustainable future to become a reality today.”

HYPR will use its own balance sheet to invest in the battery modules so customers can be offered a pay-as-you-go model with no up-front capital requirements.

Creek Chairman and SirajPower Co-Founder Mr. Mohammed Abdulghaffar Hussain said that “the joint platform will help improve and address some of the recurring challenges experienced by businesses in the construction and industrial sectors when the connection to the grid is not a viable option.”

“Through the partnership, we are introducing a fully financed energy storage solution using mobile systems to help customers generate savings and reduce their carbon footprint. As an end-to-end solar service provider, we want to support the business through their transition to clean energy,” he added.
