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 solar panels requests in the area come from:
- Family homes: a foldable panel for load-shedding phone, router and light charging, packed away when not needed
- Estate homes: a compact panel and power station for balcony or garden use, quiet and easy to store
- Townhouses and flats: a portable option where a fixed roof array is not allowed, placed on a balcony or patio
- Shops, offices and schools: portable panels for market stalls, mobile workshops and site offices without a reliable supply
- Factories and warehouses: portable panels for site equipment, trailers and backup charging for tools and radios
- Farms, smallholdings and lodges: foldable panels for fence energisers, bakkie batteries and remote tools far from any socket
