Making the world a better place:

• We make a proven difference in South Africa to the benefit of our local communities.

• By minimising electricity waste, we have contributed to extensive water, carbon emission and energy savings, which are beneficial to South Africa and the rest of the world.

• We help relieve the strain on Eskom and electricity users, by ensuring that wherever we are appointed, municipalities’ payment to Eskom is prioritised.

• Our endeavours have led to upgrades of deteriorating infrastructure and a turnaround of poor service delivery, which ultimately reduces the burden on Government to intervene.

• We assist commercial farmers, who are often overlooked by traditional energy providers, with any solar PV problems they may have.
