Solar in Polokwane

Polokwane gets abundant sunshine and clear skies for most of the year, which makes it one of the better spots for solar in the north. The Polokwane Municipality supplies the city and Eskom serves surrounding areas, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved with the supplier before they go live. Housing is a mix of security estates, townhouses and suburban homes with tile or IBR roofs, plus warehouses and shopping centres along the N1. Heat can lower panel output on summer afternoons, and thunderstorms bring hail and lightning. Hybrid backup, solar geysers, lodge systems and commercial rooftops are popular, and farms look at borehole pumping.

Typical solar compliance and registration requests in the area come from:

• Family homes: a hybrid home system that needs a CoC and municipal approval before or after connecting to the grid
• Estate homes: estate rules and the municipality both involved, with approvals and certificates kept ready for the HOA
• Townhouses and flats: body-corporate consent plus municipal approval for small systems on shared roofs and distribution boards
• Shops, offices and schools: rooftop systems requiring SSEG approval, drawings and a CoC for insurers, landlords and lenders
• Factories and warehouses: larger embedded generation applications with protection settings, studies and formal utility approval
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: mixed off-grid and grid-connected systems needing a certificate for insurance and any Eskom connection
