Cape Town has launched the 7 MW Atlantis Sun Farm, a city-owned solar initiative featuring over 12,800 photovoltaic panels aimed at reducing reliance on Eskom and cutting electricity costs. With a budget of R200 million, the project is expected to deliver a 14.6% internal rate of return and provide local economic benefits, including job creation for Atlantis residents. Advanced technologies and ecological measures are incorporated, with plans for future renewable projects following this model.
