Solar in Pietermaritzburg

Pietermaritzburg lies in a warm valley with hot, humid summers, frequent storms and mild, bright winters, so solar produces well in the dry months and less during overcast spells. The Msunduzi Municipality supplies the city, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved with it, while Eskom serves parts of the Midlands. Heritage houses in Scottsville and Clarendon have corrugated iron or tile roofs and may be subject to heritage rules, while Hilton and newer estates have modern tile roofs. Hail, lightning and heavy rain are the main risks. Hybrid backup, solar geysers, school and factory rooftops and farm pumps are popular.

Typical solar charge controllers requests in the area come from:

• Family homes: a controller in a small backup system for gate motors, lights or a garden pump
• 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
• 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
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: MPPT controllers charging battery banks for borehole pumps, fences, cold rooms and remote sheds
