Client’s Challenges
The Simonsberg Residential Complex faced significant challenges due to the unreliable energy infrastructure, especially the severe impacts of load shedding. Frequent power outages jeopardised the functionality of essential systems like CCTV, fencing, and heat pumps and created a climate of uncertainty for residents.
The continuous rise in energy costs further compounded the problem, highlighting the urgent need for an affordable and reliable energy solution. Seeking to ensure energy independence and stability, the owners turned to Dontuwire for a sustainable upgrade to their current infrastructure.
With our unwavering commitment to innovation and sustainability, we delivered a comprehensive solution that met their immediate needs and set the stage for a resilient, eco-friendly future at the Simonsberg Residential Complex.
Client's Goals
At the project’s start, Dontuwire collaborated with the Simonsberg Residential Complex’s management to tackle the shortcomings of their existing energy infrastructure. We aimed to improve residents’ quality of life and establish a more stable, sustainable living environment. Together, we crafted practical solutions aligned with their core objectives:
- Uninterrupted Power Supply: Ensure continuous operation of essential systems, eliminating the inconvenience and disruptions caused by load shedding.
- Cost Efficiency: Implement energy-efficient practices and renewable energy solutions to reduce monthly electricity expenses significantly.
- Protection Against Voltage Fluctuations: Safeguard critical infrastructure, such as CCTV, fencing, and heat pumps, from the adverse effects of voltage dips and surges, especially during load-shedding events.
Our Solutions
With the implementation of two Sunsynk 50kW HV Hybrid Inverters, the Simonsberg Residential Complex had an uninterrupted power supply even during load shedding events. This robust solar system provides peace of mind, allowing residents to maintain essential functions without disruption. Paired with two Sunsynk 60kWh HV Lithium Batteries, Dontuwire’s solution guarantees backup power during outages and protects critical infrastructure from voltage fluctuations. This comprehensive setup offers stability and prolongs the lifespan of valuable equipment.
Integrating a vast solar array of 213 Seraphim 460W panels maximises energy generation. This innovative approach significantly reduces dependency on grid power, leading to substantial savings in electricity costs. The Simonsberg Residential Complex can now embrace a more cost-effective and sustainable energy solution, ensuring its residents’ brighter and more resilient future.
Dontuwire’s solution empowered the Simonsberg Residential Complex to take control of its energy usage while significantly reducing its carbon footprint. With enhanced energy efficiency and reliability, the complex is now equipped for a greener, more sustainable future.
