Honorable Dr. Matthew Prempeh-Opoku, Ghana’s Minister of Energy, endorsed Africa’s largest rooftop solar installation, powered by Sungrow, during his recent inspection at the project site in the Tema Freezone, Ghana.
Owned by Helios Solar Company (part of LMI Holdings), the 16.82 megawatt project utilizes Sungrow’s cutting-edge SG350HX PV inverter alongside the MV Station MVS4480-LV, Sungrow’s technology. Selected by the project’s PV EPC and O&M Contractor, Dutch & Co., both components will play a pivotal role in delivering reliable and efficient solar energy solutions and helping Ghana reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 11,000 tons annually.
Sungrow emphasizes the company’s dedication to accelerating the development of clean energy power generation system integration.
“The Sungrow team is proud to have been selected by Dutch & Co. to provide technical solutions for this project, which will be Africa’s largest rooftop solar installation. This work aligns with our mission, ‘clean power for all’ and reinforces our commitment to accelerating the adoption of clean energy solutions and driving innovation in power conversion technology for a sustainable future,” states a representative of Sungrow.
Funded by the International Finance Corporation as part of an all-encompassing USD30 million clean power and water deal with LMI Holdings, the installation will comprise 29,261 solar panels using the latest N-type technology across a rooftop area of 92,000 m2 of LMI Holdings’ IWC Mega-warehouse.
Once operational, the solar system is expected to generate 24,750 MWh of clean, stable, and sustainable electricity annually, reinforcing Sungrow’s leading role in pioneering innovative and environmentally conscious initiatives within the energy sector.
