Solar in North West

North West is among the sunniest parts of the country, with long dry spells, clear skies and very hot summers. Eskom supplies many towns and rural areas directly, while municipalities such as Rustenburg, Matlosana and Tlokwe handle their own networks, and each has its own embedded-generation approval process for grid-tied and hybrid systems. Farms use solar for borehole pumps, irrigation, dairies and cold rooms, and mine-town homes and businesses want backup power. Heat and dust reduce output if panels are left uncleaned, and summer thunderstorms bring hail and lightning. Roofs are mostly IBR sheeting on farm buildings and concrete tile on town houses, with open ground for mounting.

Typical solar charge controllers requests in the area come from:

• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: MPPT controllers charging battery banks for borehole pumps, fences, cold rooms and remote sheds
• Family homes: a controller in a small backup system for gate motors, lights or a garden pump
• Shops, offices and schools: a controller in a small off-grid setup for signage, security systems or a remote site
• Factories and warehouses: high-current controllers on remote monitoring, lighting or pumping systems away from the grid
• Estate homes: a controller inside a neat battery cabinet for security lights, gates or a guard house
• Townhouses and flats: a small controller powering communal lighting or a gate from a few panels, with approval
