Partnering with WBHO, a major South African construction group, Sungrow’s advanced technology will drive environmental and socio-economic progress across the region.

Located in Welkom, Free State Province, this landmark initiative comprises two groundbreaking solar PV wheeling projects totalling 500MWp. Owned by NOA Group and powered by Sungrow’s 1+X Modular Inverter and string combiner box, the installation features 712,000 bifacial solar modules mounted on single-axis trackers at the Khauta West and South sites.

As NOA Group’s first utility-scale solar venture, this project marks a major milestone in Africa’s sustainable energy transition and solidifies NOA’s role as an energy aggregator capable of generating, wheeling, and supplying clean electricity nationwide to decarbonize corporate operations.

“Sungrow is honored to partner with WBHO in advancing Africa’s renewable energy revolution,” said Eric Song, Director of Sub-Saharan Africa at Sungrow. “Our 1+X modular inverter and PVS-16MH solutions ensure seamless integration and peak performance, making this transformative project a reality.”

As Africa’s tier-1 renewable energy solutions provider, Sungrow remains committed to accelerating global clean energy adoption through innovation and collaboration, empowering businesses and communities with reliable, efficient, and sustainable power.
