Growthpoint plans to double solar capacity by June

Real estate investment trust (Reit) Growthpoint Properties is going to great lengths to ensure its buildings and tentants’ businesses remain powered up during South Africa’s electricity crisis and more intense bouts of loadshedding. The Reit has installed 13.5 MW of renewable energy generation across more than 20 rooftop and carport solar plants and plans to double this capacity by June.
