The installation of a rooftop solar photovoltaic system at Tiffany’s Shopping Centre and Spar in Salt Rock on Kwa-Zulu Natal’s Dolphin Coast has been completed, enabling the retail centre tenants to harness the abundant coastal sunshine, go green and save costs.  Initially halted three quarters of the way through installation due to the Coronavirus lockdown, the project was able to progress as the country moved into Level 4. 1134 Canadian Solar Panels will produce over 520 000 kWh of solar energy annually through the grid-tied system.

With the global and local economy reeling from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, businesses are being forced to cut operational costs wherever possible. “These uncertain times make it very difficult for businesses to get a handle on their near-term revenues and finance costs. That leaves the operating cost line as one of the few things they can try to control - and energy cost savings can play a big role there,” says Tim Frankish of solar energy company SolarSaver.
