Langeberg Mall in Mossel Bay has become the latest solar success story for SOLA Future Energy. The system, installed over 3 separate roofs at the retail centre, consists of 4104 polycrystalline solar modules, with 20 String Inverters to convert the power generated by photons into usable energy.

The project is expected to produce 1 980 445 kWh of energy per annum, around 20% of the retail centre’s overall consumption.

“To date, the solar system at Langeberg Mall is the largest single-phase installation that we have carried out,” said Dom Wills, CEO of SOLA Future Energy. “Langeberg mall is a great example of how retail solar projects add value to shopping centres around South Africa, where there are extensive solar resources available.”  

The installation was carried out in record time, over 9 weeks from design to completion.
