Lower-cost, free-maintenance, zero-investment rooftop solar electricity is the enticing five-year power purchase agreement (PPA) offer from Sosimple Energy - a diligent entrepreneurial company which already owns and operates more than 75 of solar PV assets across South Africa’s industrial and commercial sectors, and which is targeting five times more.

“The customer carries no risk or expense beyond paying for the power they consume. We recover our investment over the term of the agreement,” Sosimple Energy MD Liana Braxton outlines in the attached video interview with Engineering News & Mining Weekly Publishing Editor Martin Creamer.

Sosimple Energy designs, funds, builds, owns, operates and maintains its PV systems, and its PPA customers pay for the power they use at a rate lower than Eskom.

“Businesses no longer have to choose between saving money, staying flexible, and doing the right thing for the environment. Clean, reliable, affordable energy is here — and it doesn’t require capital or a 20-year contract. The five-year solar plan proves that sustainability can be simple and practical for businesses right now,” Braxton emphasises during the compelling question-and-answer video session, which is a ‘must view’.
