    1. Solar Thermal and Energy Efficiency Facility
    The Palm Hospitality Group operates both solar thermal and photovoltaic (PV) systems. The thermal system uses flat-plate collectors, providing each hotel block with 24 m² of collector area and 2,500 litres of hot water storage, supported by an LPG backup. The 160 kW PV system comprises 400 solar panels (400 W each), with 92 installed on carports and 308 on rooftops. A 110 kW grid-tied inverter from SMA Solar Technology supplies electricity to the hotel.

    2. Biogas Facility
    The Lanforce Energy Biogas Initiative features household-scale biodigesters that provide clean cooking energy for local communities. Each 8 m³ digester measures 2.3 m wide, 3 m long, and 0.8 m deep. The project, implemented in partnership with Wild Horizons and the Jafuta Foundation, reduces dependence on firewood and helps mitigate human–wildlife conflict near protected areas.

    The 2026 SADC SEW Golf Tournament fees are USD 50 for individual players and USD 200 for teams.
