Solar in Randfontein

Randfontein is a West Rand mining town with sunny Highveld winters, hot summers and thunderstorms that bring hail and lightning. Electricity is supplied by the Rand West City municipality in town and by Eskom in some outlying areas, so confirm which supplier applies before you apply for approval of a grid-tied or hybrid system. Established suburbs have face-brick houses with tiled or corrugated roofs, while industrial sites and workshops have large sheeted roofs suited to commercial arrays. Dust from mine dumps settles on panels, so cleaning access is worth planning. Smallholdings towards Westonaria often want borehole pumps, solar geysers and hybrid backup because supply can be patchy.

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
  • 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
  • Townhouses and flats: a PV geyser with a few panels, often easier than roof pipework in a sectional title complex
  • Estate homes: a low-profile conversion with panels placed to satisfy the estate's design guidelines

Will someone come out to look at the property?

How much sun is there in Randfontein?
A north-facing array in Randfontein 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.
