  • Daystar Power has commissioned a 532kWp grid-tied solar system at the Tema factory of Nexans, a leader in the design and manufacturing of cable systems and energy solutions.

The fully ground-mounted system is a first in Ghana.The solar system seamlessly integrates with grid power and generators using an ENcombi  controller to ensure 99.9% uptime and allow for preventive maintenance.

“Companies in Ghana face the pressing need to decarbonise their operations. Nexans is a great example of how companies can adopt solar energy to meet their carbon emissions targets and drive energy cost savings,” said Victor Ezenwoko, Ghana Country Head of Daystar Power, “We couldn’t be prouder to have our first ground-mounted system in Ghana located in the country’s leading manufacturing hub.”

This new solar system that will partly power its Ghana factory’s operations reflects Nexans’ commitment to decarbonising its global operations.

“At Nexans Kabelmetal, we are committed to integrating sustainable energy solutions into our operations, and this new solar system is a significant step towards achieving our environmental goals. Our partnership with Daystar Power exemplifies our dedication to innovation and sustainability as we work towards our goal of net-zero emissions by 2050” said Alexander Quarcoopome, CEO of Nexans Kabelmetal.

Green Building Africa promotes the need for net carbon zero buildings and cities in Africa. We are fiercely independent and encourage outlying thinkers to contribute to the #netcarbonzero movement. Climate change is upon us and now is the time to react in a more diverse and broader approach to sustainability in the built environment. We challenge architects, property developers, urban planners, renewable energy professionals and green building specialists. We also challenge the funding houses and regulators and the role they play in facilitating investment into green projects. Lastly, we explore and investigate new technology and real-time data to speed up the journey in realising a net carbon zero environment for our children.
