Are solar vendors keeping you in the dark about the real cost of their systems?

Facing skyrocketing electricity costs and frequent power outages, a major Western Cape textiles manufacturer needed a sustainable and cost-effective energy solution. Their reliance on the grid and the instability of power supply were inflating operational expenses and disrupting production. The answer to their challenges? Solar power.

Proposed Solution

The textiles manufacturer partnered with Skywolff Energy to implement a grid-tied solar photovoltaic (PV) system. This system, featuring 1 090 solar panels and 600 kW PV inverters, was designed to generate 960 MWh of electricity annually, covering approximately 40% of the factory’s daily energy consumption. The financial model included a rent-to-own agreement with no initial deposit and a fixed annual cost increase of 6%, ensuring immediate savings.
