Donauer completes two PV plants in South Africa
The plant will deliver an annual yield of around 2,800 kilowatt hours as part of a project to provide environmentally friendly electricity for two educational institutions on location.
The first Donauer solar plant, located in the Mafa Max Motloung Secondary School in Delmas, was connected to the grid late last year and its expected annual yield is approximately 3,000 kilowatt hours. This is set to help reducing the school's electricity costs by 40 per cent.
