Eco-Cycle Group recently performed the installation of a grid-tied solar system at the Corruseal KZN site located at 14 Joyner Road, Prospecton, Durban. This comprised the installation of solar panels, combiner boxes, inverters and all required cabling for a 400 volt, 3-phase system.
Prior to commencement of the project, the project team on site fulfilled all the required site safety administrative requirements such as induction, safety file documentation, risk assessments, working at height protocols etc. During the project, the project team complied with all safety requirements (working with permit, ensuring all working was performed in accordance with the safety file, correct PPE etc).
The safety team on site enjoyed good communication with the project team to ensure compliance with the site protocols and at the weekly project feedback meetings, there were no safety deviations reported. There were zero reported safety incidents during the project.

Health and Safety during solar project installation
I had the pleasure of dealing with Michael Calamas and his team from Eco-Cycle Group when they installed a 300kw grid-tied system at our City Deep facility.
We interviewed more than 10 companies when we were considering the solar plant.
Everyone had more or less the same approach and sales pitch.
But we felt that Eco-Cycle Group stood out for their attention to detail and commitment to understanding our specific needs. From the initial consultation to the final installation, Michael and his team demonstrated professionalism and expertise that surpassed our expectations.
We have been living with our plant for a little over a year now and our actual return is outperforming our forecast. Furthermore, we have not experienced any downtime or breakdowns on the plant. All in all, this was definitely a worth while investment.

I wish to express my thanks to you and your team with regards to the ongoing exceptional service and attention that SPE is receiving a few years post the installation of the 1.2MW Solar System.
As you are aware I was hesitant in investing in the system due to the capital outlay, but can confirm that we most certainly made the correct decision when partnering with your organization.
Our monthly utility payments to the service providers have decreased in line with your projections and when load shedding was at its peak our diesel usage was reduced by approximately 40% when running the standby generators.
In today’s day and age it is quite challenging to find reliable and honest suppliers, thanks you for being that rare commodity.
I wish you all the best for the future.
