Solar in Sasolburg

Sasolburg lies on the Highveld with strong sunshine for most of the year, clear winter days and hot summers with afternoon storms. Electricity is supplied by the Metsimaholo Local Municipality, with Eskom serving some surrounding areas, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved before they are connected. Industrial roofs and warehouses suit large commercial systems, while homes in town and holiday houses near the Vaal Dam use tile and IBR roofs. Hail and lightning are real concerns, and industrial dust and fallout can dirty panels. Plant sites often have contractor induction and access rules. Hybrid backup, solar geysers and commercial rooftops are popular.
