Utatu Opus: a 13 MW solar case, from sunlight to payback

Utatu Opus was seeking investment for 65 rooftop solar systems across Uganda. We designed and animated a proposal that walks investors from the opportunity to the returns.

The challenge

The proposal had to explain a technical project (65 grid-tied 200 kW systems on factories, schools and hospitals) and its projected returns: $10.69M capex, 19.6% ROI, 24.15% IRR and a 7.1-year payback.

Figures like these lose investors when they arrive as a spreadsheet. They needed an order and a clear hierarchy.

  • Financial clarity
  • Animation
  • Timelines

Inside the deck

Implementation plan slide: workstreams laid out on a phase grid from Q4 2025 to 2030

The implementation plan: six workstreams from Q4 2025 to 2030, on one phase grid.

Our approach

  1. 01

    A clear, numbered story

    A numbered agenda takes investors from who Utatu is, to the system, to the money, to the ask.

  2. 02

    Financials made scannable

    Investor and company roles side by side, key figures set large, and a single-slide summary of size, savings, profit and carbon.

  3. 03

    A rollout you read at a glance

    Five phases, from financial close in Q4 2025 to full operation in 2030, set as a clear phase grid.
