CAPITAL INVESTMENT

Solar assisted Refrigeration and Outsourced Steam

An Integrated Approach to going Green

Clover’s strategic decision to consolidate multiple factories across South Africa into four strategic plants, the largest of which is in Queensburgh KwaZulu Natal, significantly greater utility requirements emerged. Energy Partners was approached in order to solve a variety of problems – from increased power needs to higher refrigeration load as well as increased steam demand and pressure requirements.

Project Size : Solar 1513kWp, Refrigeration 9500kWr, Steam 75T/hr
Technology : Ammonia plant, 3 x 25 T/hr 25 bar Steam Boilers, Rooftop PV
Funding Option : Cooling as a Service, Outsourced Steam, Solar assisted Refrigeration
Location : Queensburgh, Kwazulu Natal
Commissioning Date : 2022

“Removing the upfront investment required, enabled Clover to free up capital to further invest in Project Sencillo. The latter benefit together with the fact that we have access to a modern automated plant for which Energy Partners has committed to guaranteed uptime and efficiency, in line with leading industry standards. This has resulted in lower operational costs and is ensuring that Clover is at the forefront of efficient and sustainable technology in the country. Definitely a “win-win” situation for both parties.”
