Solar Lights in Northern Cape

Solar Lights for Northern Cape buyers

Whether you are in Northern Cape or elsewhere in Northern Cape, solar lights suit gardens, driveways and boundaries, and keep working through load-shedding. Local suppliers can recommend fittings that cope with your area's sun, wind and, near the coast, salt air.

Solar in Northern Cape

The Northern Cape receives some of the strongest sunshine in South Africa, with very little cloud and long hours of clear sky through the year. Eskom supplies most rural areas, while Sol Plaatje, Dawid Kruiper and other municipalities run their own networks, and each requires embedded-generation approval for grid-tied and hybrid systems. Distances are huge and grid power can be weak or far away, so off-grid systems, borehole pumps and farm installations are common, along with solar for mines, guest farms and town businesses. Extreme heat, dust, strong wind and cold desert nights are the main conditions to plan for. Roofs are mainly IBR sheeting, and ground-mount space is plentiful.

Typical solar lights requests in the area come from:

• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: lighting for kraals, sheds, farmyards and staff housing where mains power is unavailable
• Shops, offices and schools: parking, entrance and signage-free façade lighting that works during outages
• Factories and warehouses: perimeter and yard lighting for depots and warehouses, often with higher-output fittings
• Family homes: path, patio and boundary wall lights that come on at dusk and ignore load-shedding
• Estate homes: tasteful, low-glare fittings that meet estate design rules for gardens, entrances and walkways
• Townhouses and flats: communal pathway and carport lighting installed with body-corporate approval and no new wiring
