CTHS Solar Panels - Sep '20

 Cape Town High School is embarking on the installation of solar panels at our school!

This project is a partnership between Cape Town High School and the Sun Exchange and Soventix companies. It has zero upfront costs for Cape Town High. The school only pays for the energy it consumes - that is much lower than the City of Cape Town. 

There is a definite environmental benefit as well. Going solar via Sun Exchange will enable the school to prevent 691 tonnes of CO2 from entering the earth's atmosphere.

The plant is to be fully monitored, maintained and insured at no additional cost to the school. The total savings will be about R 77 000 per annum. This will enable the school to market itself as both solar- and environmentally friendly.

Our school is already participating in Eco School programme.
