Solar system The expected cost of installation of the solar system is R7.79 million. This system should account for the installation of 100, high efficiency 650W solar panels. The combination of the solar system and batteries will allow for additional cost savings. The costs to maintain this system will total R50 000 per annum. Generators The expected cost of installation of the generators is R6 million. The generators would be used solely during loadshedding (you may assume no other material power outages will occur). Costs to operate the generator will total R100 000 per annum. This does not factor in any future movements of the Oil price.
