The sun2live solar energy generation and in some cases storage solutions of The meeco Group can act as a 24/7 power supply source or a backup solution for small-to-medium sized and both grid-connected or off-grid uses. The sun2live solution provides alternative means of electricity to households, businesses and communities who today depend on the unreliability or the expensive cost of the grid.
The installation of the Seasons Foods’ project was initiated in April 2014 using high-quality European photovoltaic modules and inverters as well as mounting substructures system. These were especially tailor-made as per the local requirements in Pakistan and of the customers’ premises.
