Solar Lights in Western Cape

Solar Lights for Western Cape buyers

Whether you are in Western Cape or elsewhere in Western 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.

Want to know more first? Our solar lights guide covers the options, what to check and what affects the price.

Solar in Western Cape

The Western Cape has hot, dry, very sunny summers and wetter, cloudier winters, so solar output is strong in the warm months and lower in the cold, rainy ones. The City of Cape Town supplies its own area and requires embedded generation to be registered and approved, with other municipalities and Eskom covering the rest of the province, each with its own rules. Coastal salt air corrodes fixings, and the south-easter in summer puts real load on roofs and arrays. Roofs include slate, clay tile, concrete tile and IBR, and wine farms, fruit farms and heritage homes each have their own needs. Hybrid backup, solar geysers and farm pumping are popular.

Typical solar lights requests in the area come from:

• 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
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: lighting for kraals, sheds, farmyards and staff housing where mains power is unavailable
• Townhouses and flats: communal pathway and carport lighting installed with body-corporate approval and no new wiring
• 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

Why get a quote in Western Cape first?

What to include in your request

• Areas you want lit and how many lights
• Brightness needed for each area
• Whether you want motion sensors
• Where direct sun reaches during the day

The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.
