Solar in Mbombela

Mbombela is in the warm, humid Lowveld, where summer brings heat, cloud build-up and heavy afternoon storms, while winter days are clear, dry and pleasantly sunny. Electricity is supplied by the City of Mbombela in town and by Eskom in surrounding areas, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered with whichever supplier applies. Hillside suburbs have concrete tile and IBR roofs, and lodges, guest houses and citrus and subtropical farms around White River, Hazyview and Malelane want hybrid, off-grid and pumping systems. Heat reduces panel efficiency and storms bring lightning, so ventilation, earthing and surge protection matter. Solar geysers are popular in homes.

Typical solar geyser conversion requests in the area come from:

  • Family homes: a retrofit or PV kit fitted to the family home's existing geyser without replacing the tank
  • Farms, smallholdings and lodges: conversions of farmhouse and worker housing geysers where mains power is unreliable or expensive to extend
  • Estate homes: a low-profile conversion with panels placed to satisfy the estate's design guidelines
  • Shops, offices and schools: adding panels or collectors to an existing hot water cylinder in a restaurant, clinic or guesthouse
  • Townhouses and flats: a PV geyser with a few panels, often easier than roof pipework in a sectional title complex
  • Factories and warehouses: retrofitting solar heating to large hot water tanks used for staff facilities and washdown
