Solar in Germiston

Germiston is an East Rand industrial city with strong Highveld sun, dry sunny winters and summer storms with hail and lightning. Electricity is supplied by Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality, and grid-tied and hybrid systems must be registered and approved by the metro before they are connected. The large factory and warehouse belt around Wadeville and Jupiter has big flat and sheeted roofs, which makes commercial rooftop solar a strong local interest. Older face-brick homes and townhouse complexes want hybrid backup and solar geysers. Roofs on older buildings should be checked for condition and load capacity before panels are fitted.
