Killian Family Wine Farm Solar PV System
Killian Family Wine Farm is a 500 kW solar PV system on a working wine estate outside Stellenbosch. The array carries daytime load across cellar operations, cold storage, pumping and packing — the demand that runs hardest through the growing and harvest seasons — reducing the farm’s exposure to grid tariffs and supply interruption.
What the Killian Family Wine Farm system covers
A 500 kW array on a working wine estate is sized against a load profile that peaks with the season. Cellar operations, cold storage, pumping and packing all draw hardest through growing and harvest, which is also when downtime is least affordable.
Generating on site through those daylight hours shifts a meaningful portion of that demand off the grid.
