Project descriptionThe company, Blue Future Investments, established in 2008 is based in Johannesburg, South Africa and currently employs 7 persons.
Blue Future Investments is a South African company specialising in management consultancy, financial and human resource management, providing technology applications and platforms for its clients to perform a range of services for their customers, businesses and employees. The company’s applications cover performance reviews, surveys and assessments for employee engagement, customer satisfaction, compliance, the workplace culture and technology which is utilised to provide training content for employees and customers. The business includes a BPO (business process outsourcing) house together with the management and placement of employees. The customers have been engaging with us over several years and typically subscribe to several services that the company offers. Mostly focused on the SME market but across various industries.
Blue Future Investments has spent considerable time and effort in market research & proof of concept for the establishment of a feasible and realistic community based residential and SMME business plan. The aim is to target a selection of South Africa energy consumers to offer them a micro IPP solution using alternative and sustainable sources of renewable energy. Blue Future has already set up a company where the research and business case studies are being done; Blue Power Solutions (BPS). BPS has been identified as the possible research, marketing utility and roll out company name for the project including its involvement with several pilot projects for solar and battery energy installations in South Africa. The pilot projects have confirmed the viability of the proof of concept and has been the basis for the subsequent business case study and resultant business plan.
Blue Future Investments is looking for technology partners from solar, photovoltaics and fuel cell technologies to join our team to improve the skill sets and technology. Piloting the company's business model can rapidly be upscaled to other provinces and countries in Africa. The company can provide solutions for remote locations, poorly and more costly served global locations, replacing utility grid power for a cheaper price and a more reliable power supply. The company will target an initial 8.38 million homes with 63% found in Gauteng & Western Cape providing a company CRM target model of 5.3 million households. They aim to establish an initial 5,197 customer base from the 318,000 households (6%) at 30 sites per month, expanding our offering to community operations through The BPS academy. The academy will offer vocational and entrepreneurial training to provide installation and service teams for BPS and other potential IPP projects.
