“The Kalahari Mall Solar project could not have presented bigger technical challenges. After reaching a seemingly dead end the EP Solar team proposed a solar car port as an alternative structure. Apart from providing invaluable shade, the EP Solar team made the additional effort to work with structural engineers to lift the entire sub-structure in order to accommodate the high concentration of SUV’s and bakkies of our customers. We are exceedingly proud to literally be the owners of the world’s first 4×4 friendly solar carport, providing shade for our customers and generating an attractive financial return on our investment.” Project Director
