South Africa’s oldest wine-producing farm and world-renowned tourist destination Groot Constantia has partnered with innovative solar leasing platform Sun Exchange to crowd-sell a 165 kW solar plant for Groot Constantia’s winemaking facilities and restaurants.
Hosted on the Sun Exchange platform, the crowd-sale enables people across South Africa and the globe to easily buy solar cells for R64 a cell, thereby essentially investing in a portion of the eventual solar farm and being able to earn money back on the power generated by their solar cells.
