The solar farm is designed to comprise 33,000 ground-mounted solar panels, 100 inverters and related hardware. The solar panels are mounted on 67 single-axis trackers which tilt the attached panels to track the direction of the sun, thereby maximizing exposure and electricity generated. The 20 megawatts generated at this power station will be purchased by NamPower for integration into the national electricity grid. .
The solar farm is located on an area measuring 250 acres (100 ha), outside the town of , in southern Namibia, close to the border with . The town of Rosh Pinah is located approximately 724 kilometres (450 mi), southwest of , the capital and largest city of Namibia. alamy.com
