Solar in Cape Town

Cape Town has a Mediterranean climate with long, sunny, dry summers and wetter, cloudier winters, so solar output peaks in the warm months and dips in winter. The City of Cape Town supplies most of the metro and requires small-scale embedded generation to be registered and approved, with only approved inverters and installers accepted for grid-tied and hybrid systems. The south-easter wind, salt air on the Atlantic Seaboard and corrosion near the coast demand engineered mounting and marine-grade fittings. Roofs include tile, IBR, slate and flat concrete in apartment blocks, and heritage or body-corporate rules affect some properties. Hybrid backup, solar geysers and commercial rooftops are very popular.

Typical portable power stations requests in the area come from:

  • Family homes: a plug-in unit that keeps the router, lights and laptop going during short outages
  • Estate homes: a quiet, fumeless alternative to a petrol generator for braais, gatherings and short outages
  • Townhouses and flats: a movable backup that needs no wiring changes, handy where body corporate rules limit fixed systems
  • Shops, offices and schools: backup for card machines, laptops and lights at a market stall, site office or small shop
  • Factories and warehouses: portable power for site tools, inspections and remote work where no socket is nearby
  • Farms, smallholdings and lodges: power for fencing, tools and camp lighting in the field, charged by folding panels
