The South Africa unit of German solar photovoltaic (PV) mounting-systems specialist Schletter is considering investing in its own domestic manufacturing capacity in an effort to service growing local and regional demand, as well as to further raise the localisation levels of the solutions it supplies.
The company established operations in Johannesburg in late 2011 and currently produces its systems locally in partnership with domestic manufacturers.
Schletter South Africa (SA) MD Bernhard Suchland says it is already supplying mounting structures for five South African projects following the first two bidding rounds under South Africa’s Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REIPPPP).
Theses projects collectively represent some 130 MW of solar PV capacity, adding to the group’s global base of installed mounting tables that hold panels which together represent 11 000 MW of capacity across Europe, North America, Asia and Australasia.
