Project:
Rural containerised 60kW Solar PV + 102 kWhr Battery Storage System - 3x Limpopo Schools
Project Scope:
Zero Point Energy successfully completed customised container-based solar PV + battery storage systems that were engineered & built in-house for a rural application at 3x schools in the Limpopo province. The units were pre-assembled in Johannesburg and deployed at 3x different Limpopo school sites and commissioned within the winter school holidays without disruption to the schooling calendar.
The goal was to provide continuous backup power during the school day, and reduced monthly bills for the school.
