New entrance to Vaal Mall
Have you been wondering what is the cause of the roadworks on the Golden Highway? Read more about when this will be completed.
VANDERBIJLPARK. – Vaal Mall is upgrading its infrastructure to include a solar-first power and backup energy system and a convenient new link road into the mall directly from the R57 Golden Highway.
The new 2.5MW rooftop solar plant, when taken together with Vaal Mall’s existing carport solar installation of 1MVA, increases the mall’s total solar power plants to 3MW.
As part of the project, the mall’s diesel generators will also be consolidated to create a hybrid solar and diesel integrated power system for the mall.
The system is designed to use solar power whenever available, including during load shedding, dramatically reducing diesel costs for the mall and its tenants, and benefitting the environment.
Vaal Mall’s owners are also building a new link road off the Golden Highway which will help alleviate traffic into the mall from Barrage Road and Rossini Boulevard.
Vaal Mall’s new state-of-the-art energy management system and accessible new entrance point will be complete by the end of June this year.
