CEF Solar Water Heating 500 Project

Document Actions

CEF (Pty) Ltd and its partners are introducing high-quality solar water heating for domestic use in middle- to upper-income homes as part of a six-month pilot project, taking advantage of the high number of days with sunshine in South Africa.

Working with the Department of Minerals and Energy, the Department of Science and Technology, the United Nations Development Programme, the Global Environment Facility and the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS), CEF aims with this project to create awareness and remove market barriers to solar technology.

According to Nadia Moosa, project manager at the Energy Development Corporation, a division of CEF, the group has also set national standards for solar heating products and their installation, while a testing laboratory has also been established.

This has been done to protect consumers from unscrupulous operators and poor-quality solar heating systems.
