Modern farmers need a reliable source of electricity to power pumps, irrigation, communication, control, and management systems on their farms.

Eskom’s inability to provide a reliable and continuous supply of electricity makes solar products and services needed now more than ever. Frequent power interruptions, imposed by the state-owned power utility, have resulted in businesses, farmers, and individuals looking for alternative sources of energy to ensure the success of their operations.

Rentech Renewable Technologies offers scalable products that can be customised to suit the user's specific needs. This means they are suitable for a wide range of applications, from small-scale residential use to large-scale commercial and agricultural operations. 

For the agricultural sector, the company offers custom-designed solar solutions to suit the specific needs of individual farms. Whether it is a small-scale solar solution for a water pump/irrigation or a large-scale solar plant to power the entire farm, the firm’s experts can design, procure, and install the solar solution that best meets the farm's needs.

Rentech and Willard Batteries will be participating at the upcoming NAMPO Agricultural Show to be held between 16 and 19 May in Bothaville in the Free State. NAMPO is one of the largest agricultural shows in the Southern Hemisphere, attracting thousands of visitors annually from across the continent and beyond.

Rentech will be showcasing a range of products including solar panels, inverters, batteries, and more. Visitors will have the opportunity to speak with expert consultants and learn more about the many benefits of incorporating solar energy into their agricultural operations. 

Willard Batteries has been a leader in the automotive and OEM battery industry for many years and the team of enthusiastic experts will once again be on hand to showcase their range of high-quality batteries.
