The test site encountered zero cloud cover throughout the whole period of the test, which is not unusual for this part of the world during the month of August.

  • External ambient temperatures were c.33°C
  • Plant Room ambient temperatures were c.31°C
  • Process Cooling required temperatures were16°C

Actual energy consumption savings throughout sunlight hours averaged 53%.
