Clinton Hardwick

Clinton joined the company in 2013 bringing with him a wealth of experience and knowledge that has made him irreplaceable to ExSolar and The Exporter CC. He came from the high levels of Telkom where he was a high level specialist for IP networks design, implementation and management for 23 years.
He is the Senior engineer in charge of system design, system planning and system development for both solar and radio systems. 
Apart from his expertise in radio systems, Clinton also designed an energy monitoring system and grid tie limiter which we use in all our systems to manage and limit solar production, and has recently integrated a facility which enables excess PV power to be boosted into energy drawing equipment such as geysers instead of losing this excess power.
