Neosun Energy powers up South Africa’s Blue Ocean dive resort with solar installation

Neosun Energy recently completed a rooftop solar installation at Blue Ocean Dive Resort in KZN, South Africa. The on-grid system, finalised in July 2024, features over a hundred solar panels, providing a total capacity of 58 kW. It’s estimated to generate more than 88 MWh of electricity annually. This installation is expected to cut the resort’s electricity bills by around 55%. With a battery storage solution savings could potentially increase to 70-80%.

The global solar panel industry has seen remarkable growth, driven by advancements in technology and increasing demand for renewable energy. As of 2023, the global solar power capacity reached approximately 1,000 GW, marking a 22% increase from the previous year. The industry is expected to continue its upward trajectory, with projections indicating a global capacity of 2,000 GW by 2030. This growth is fuelled by declining solar panel costs, which have dropped by over 80% in the last decade, and increased adoption of solar energy in commercial and industrial sectors. Companies like Neosun Energy are capitalising on this trend, providing scalable solar solutions worldwide, as evidenced by their recent projects across 16 countries.
