Solar in Randburg

Randburg gets strong Highveld sunshine through the dry winter, with hot summers and thunderstorms in the afternoons. Electricity is supplied by City Power, and homeowners who add a grid-tied or hybrid system must register it with the City of Johannesburg before connecting. The suburbs have many mid-century face-brick houses with concrete tile or corrugated roofs, plus townhouse clusters and a commercial strip around Fontainebleau. Older roofs may need inspection before panels go on, and wiring in older homes may need upgrading for a new Certificate of Compliance. Mature trees can shade parts of a roof. Solar geysers, hybrid backup for load-shedding and small business rooftops are the usual requests.

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
  • 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
  • Estate homes: estate rules and the municipality both involved, with approvals and certificates kept ready for the HOA
  • 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
