Solar in Sandton

Sandton enjoys the clear Highveld sun that most of Johannesburg does, with bright, dry winters and summer storms. It is supplied mainly by City Power, with Eskom serving a few pockets, and grid-tied and hybrid systems must be registered and approved before they are switched on. The skyline of offices and apartment towers has roofs and podiums that are often shaded or crowded with plant, so layout needs design input. Large houses behind high walls have tile, slate or flat roofs that suit hybrid systems with sizeable batteries. Body corporates and sectional-title schemes need trustees to approve solar. Hail and lightning call for sturdy mounting and surge protection.

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

• 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
• Family homes: a hybrid home system that needs a CoC and municipal approval before or after connecting to the grid
• 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
