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 financing requests in the area come from:

  • Townhouses and flats: smaller backup and panel packages paid monthly, subject to body-corporate consent for roof work
  • Shops, offices and schools: rooftop systems on a lease, subscription or loan so the saving offsets the monthly repayment
  • Estate homes: larger home systems paid for through instalment finance or a bond, often installed in stages
  • Family homes: a family home spreading the cost of a hybrid system and batteries over a monthly payment
  • Factories and warehouses: large rooftop and carport arrays funded through lease, power-purchase or asset finance structures
  • Farms, smallholdings and lodges: pumps, off-grid power and cold rooms financed against farm income and seasonal cash flow

Why get a quote in Sandton first?

What to include in your request

Frequently asked questions

What will it cost in Sandton?
It depends on the size of the system, the equipment chosen, the roof, the distance from the inverter to the distribution board, the paperwork for your electricity supplier and how soon you need it done. Tick your loads on the form and a solar finance provider working in Sandton will quote you.
Will someone come out to look at the property?
Yes, for most jobs. The person quoting needs to see the roof, its direction and shading, the distribution board and where the inverter and batteries will go. Give your suburb on the form and they will arrange a visit.
How much sun is there in Sandton?
A north-facing array in Sandton makes about 5.2 kWh per kWp a day averaged over the year. Shade from trees or neighbours, the roof angle and dust change this, so the installer will check your roof.
