Truda Foods — Pietermaritzburg
One of the largest commercial rooftop solar installations in South Africa at the time of commissioning. Built for a client who trusted us to deliver.

- Solar PV
- 2,800 kWp
The project
At 2.8 MWp, this installation places Truda Foods — and Sunbird Solar — in genuinely rare company. It stood as one of the largest commercial rooftop solar installations in the country at the time of commissioning, a project that required bespoke inverter rooms, exceptional logistical coordination, and a team that understood the stakes.
Scale alone does not make a project great. Execution does. We are proud to have delivered both — and profoundly grateful to Truda Foods for the confidence they placed in us.
