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 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
• Estate homes: a low-profile conversion with panels placed to satisfy the estate's design guidelines
• Townhouses and flats: a PV geyser with a few panels, often easier than roof pipework in a sectional title complex
• Shops, offices and schools: adding panels or collectors to an existing hot water cylinder in a restaurant, clinic or guesthouse
• Factories and warehouses: retrofitting solar heating to large hot water tanks used for staff facilities and washdown
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: conversions of farmhouse and worker housing geysers where mains power is unreliable or expensive to extend
