Solar in Sandton

Sandton enjoys the clear Highveld sun that most of Johannesburg does, with bright, dry winters and summer storms. It is supplied mainly by City Power, with Eskom serving a few pockets, and grid-tied and hybrid systems must be registered and approved before they are switched on. The skyline of offices and apartment towers has roofs and podiums that are often shaded or crowded with plant, so layout needs design input. Large houses behind high walls have tile, slate or flat roofs that suit hybrid systems with sizeable batteries. Body corporates and sectional-title schemes need trustees to approve solar. Hail and lightning call for sturdy mounting and surge protection.

Typical grid-tied solar systems requests in the area come from:

• Townhouses and flats: small arrays on shared or private roofs, requiring body corporate approval and a clear meter arrangement
• Shops, offices and schools: rooftop arrays that cover daytime use in shops, schools and offices, often with monitoring
• Estate homes: tidy roof arrays registered with the municipality, sometimes with export limits set by the estate
• Family homes: rooftop arrays that cut daytime grid use at homes with someone in during the day
• Factories and warehouses: large flat-roof arrays or carports cutting daytime demand in factories, warehouses and cold stores
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: roof or ground arrays offsetting daytime use for irrigation, dairies and packing sheds

Why get a quote in Sandton first?
