The brief

Afresco finances and builds solar and storage for large energy users in Uganda, Kenya and beyond. Its model is clever and complicated, and the old site did not explain it.

The design moved away from stock green-energy pictures to Afresco's real installations, and split the journey for investors, partners and clients.

Built with

  • WordPress
  • Elementor
  • Custom map

UI/UX lead I led the UI/UX team on a site that explains pay-as-you-go solar to investors, partners and clients.

What I did

  • Moved the design away from stock green-energy imagery to Afresco's real installations.
  • Designed separate journeys for investors, partners and clients.
  • Designed a project story template that pairs megawatts with human impact.
  • Directed the interactive map of projects across Africa.
  • Reviewed the build against the designs on slow mobile networks.

The impact

The call I made

Real sites, real people

Stock solar imagery made Afresco look like every other energy brand. We built the design around photographs of its own installations, so the credibility comes from the work itself.
