This extensive agricultural enterprise, which farms corn, wheat, lucerne, and manages livestock, required a robust, 24/7 power solution to eliminate the disruptions of power outages and ensure enough power to run critical irrigation systems.

The project presented a complex logistical challenge; installing massive technical hardware into limited storage spaces, which could only be accessed from one side for forklift manoeuvring.

 

Project Highlights

Total System Capacity:

• Inverter Capacity: 944kW PCS Battery Inverters (combined from 500kW and 444kW sites).
• Battery Storage: 1,186kWh (combined from 270kWh and 916kWh sites).

This installation utilized premium products from Sungrow and Aiko, sourced via Herholdt’s Group and Solar Structures Africa.

 

By successfully integrating these diverse sites into one cohesive energy ecosystem, we have solved the problem of relying on grid power during critical operations.

The system now provides the stability needed for irrigation systems and general operations, securing farming and manufacturing success for the long term.
