Solar in Pietermaritzburg

Pietermaritzburg lies in a warm valley with hot, humid summers, frequent storms and mild, bright winters, so solar produces well in the dry months and less during overcast spells. The Msunduzi Municipality supplies the city, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved with it, while Eskom serves parts of the Midlands. Heritage houses in Scottsville and Clarendon have corrugated iron or tile roofs and may be subject to heritage rules, while Hilton and newer estates have modern tile roofs. Hail, lightning and heavy rain are the main risks. Hybrid backup, solar geysers, school and factory rooftops and farm pumps are popular.

Typical solar panel cleaning requests in the area come from:

• Family homes: a few roof panels washed once or twice a year, mostly of dust and leaf litter
• Estate homes: neat double-storey roof arrays cleaned from safe access points, often on a scheduled plan
• Townhouses and flats: shared or small roof arrays cleaned with body-corporate approval and arranged access to the roof
• Shops, offices and schools: flat-roof arrays on shops, offices and schools cleaned outside trading hours with minimal disruption
• Factories and warehouses: large warehouse and carport arrays cleaned by teams with poles, water supply and fall protection
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: ground and roof arrays covered in dust from gravel roads, lands and livestock yards
