Solar in Stellenbosch

Stellenbosch has a sunny, dry Cape summer and a cool, wet winter, so panels produce strongly from spring through autumn. The Stellenbosch Municipality supplies the town, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved with it, while Eskom serves some outlying farms. Heritage rules affect many buildings in the old town, and wine estates have large cellar and packshed roofs suited to solar. Student flats, security estates and homes in Die Boord use tile and IBR roofs, with body-corporate rules in many complexes. Wind off the mountains and summer heat test mounting. Hybrid backup, solar geysers, estate rooftops and farm pumps are common.

Typical solar geyser installation requests in the area come from:

  • Estate homes: a tidy installation with the tank in the ceiling and collectors that meet the architectural rules
  • Farms, smallholdings and lodges: installations at farmhouses, cottages and lodges, often with long pipe runs and ground-mounted collectors
  • Townhouses and flats: careful roof work coordinated with the body corporate, with limited access and shared structure
  • Family homes: a one or two day job fitting collectors and a tank to the family home's roof
  • Shops, offices and schools: scheduled work outside trading hours, supplying hot water to kitchens, ablutions or a guesthouse
  • Factories and warehouses: multiple collectors and large storage tanks fitted on warehouse roofs or structures, with proper access equipment

Frequently asked questions

What will it cost in Stellenbosch?
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 geyser installer working in Stellenbosch 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 Stellenbosch?
A north-facing array in Stellenbosch makes about 5.0 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.
