From May 20 - 22, our team at Thor, a leading manufacturer of surge protective devices, attended one of the leading global premier energy events, E

nlit Africa 2025 in the vibrant city of Cape Town. Enlit Africa brought together industry leaders, innovators, and decision-makers from across the region to shape the future of power and infrastructure.

It was an ideal platform for Thor to showcase our latest innovations and products, connect with potential partners, and engage in high-level discussions on energy resilience.

With over 15 years of dedication in the surge protection field, Thor remains solely focused on surge protection devices, underscoring our steadfast commitment to keeping our customers safe from overvoltage risks.

A Strong Presence on the Exhibition Floor

Our booth, at Hall 3, Stand D 14, drew consistent attention throughout the event, thanks to our dynamic demonstrations and hands-on product displays. We showcased our extended SPD series, ranging from applications for main and distribution panel, solar systems, EV charging, signal lines, etc, designed specifically to meet the needs of Africa's evolving power infrastructure. Visitors were particularly impressed by the compact design, fast response times, and durability of our solutions—features that reflect Thor's commitment to quality and innovation.

Meaningful Engagement and Business Results

The response to our products and brand exceeded expectations. Over 120 professionals visited the Thor booth, including utility engineers, project developers, and government representatives. We initiated several promising conversations, many of which have already transitioned into concrete follow-ups. We’re proud to have generated more than 30 qualified leads and the potential transaction value from connections is projected to exceed $400,000 in the next 6 - 12 months - marking a significant milestone for Thor's expansion efforts in Africa.

Showcasing Innovation and Building Trust

Beyond transactions, Enlit Africa provided a valuable stage for Thor to demonstrate our technical expertise and long-term commitment to the African energy market. Our surge protection solutions received enthusiastic feedback from professionals across Southern, Eastern, and Western Africa. The conversations we had revealed key insights into regional needs, which will directly inform our future product development and partnership strategies.

Engaging with the Future of Power

At the Enlit Africa exhibition in Cape Town, we exchanged valuable insights on surge protection technologies and shared ideas on how to address challenges in modern power systems. During the event, we actively participated in meetings and forums focused on the latest trends in energy infrastructure, renewable integration, and electrical safety. Exploring the full exhibition floor also gave us a broader perspective on innovations shaping the future of the power industry. The experience not only deepened our understanding of the market but also inspired us to continue advancing our surge protection solutions in line with global developments.

Strategic Value & Future Outlook

Participating in Enlit Africa 2025 was a strategic step in Thor's international growth. The strong interest we received confirmed the demand for reliable and affordable surge protection in regions where power stability and lightning risk are major concerns. We are now actively exploring local distribution and service partnerships in South Africa, Kenya, and Nigeria—laying the groundwork for Thor to become a trusted name across the continent.

Gratitude & Vision

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the Enlit Africa organizers and to everyone who visited the Thor booth. The energy, passion, and innovation on display in Cape Town were truly inspiring. As we move forward, Thor remains committed to delivering safer, smarter, and more sustainable surge protection solutions—not just in Africa, but around the world. We’re excited about the future and look forward to returning to Enlit to continue this exciting journey.
