Nestled in the breathtaking Devonvale of Stellenbosch, Landtscap Wedding Venue is a jewel in the Cape Winelands. Situated on the Fransmanskraal fruit farm, Landtscap is not only a working farm but also an exclusive destination for weddings, events, and accommodation. Surrounded by manicured gardens, rolling vineyards, and framed by majestic mountains, Landtscap offers the ultimate event experience.
To ensure uninterrupted operations during South Africa’s frequent power interruptions and to achieve significant savings on electricity costs, Landtscap partnered with AWPower for a state-of-the-art solar energy solution. This investment in renewable energy aligns perfectly with the venue’s commitment to excellence and sustainability.
The Solar Solution
Landtscap’s solar installation was designed to balance functionality, efficiency, and elegance, seamlessly integrating with their operations. Here’s the system we implemented:
- 72 x 415W Canadian Solar PV Panels (East-West facing angle mounting) = 29.88kWp
- Sunsynk 50kW Hybrid Inverter for optimal energy management
- 7 x 5.12kWh Sunsynk HV Batteries = 35.84kWh battery capacity
The combination of these components ensures Landtscap has a reliable and efficient power supply, while significantly reducing electricity costs.
Why Landtscap Went Solar
Operating as a wedding venue demands uninterrupted power—especially during critical moments like food preparation for receptions and running lighting, sound systems, and air conditioning during events. Loadshedding posed a significant challenge to their business, but the solar solution provided by AWPower now guarantees smooth operations no matter the circumstances.
Additionally, the financial savings achieved through solar power made this decision a smart long-term investment for the venue.
With their new solar installation, Landtscap can now deliver exceptional service to their clients without worrying about power disruptions. The venue is not only reaping the benefits of lower energy costs but also contributing to a greener future, enhancing its appeal as an environmentally conscious event destination.
At AWPower, we’re proud to have played a role in helping Landtscap achieve its energy goals.
