Solar in Richards Bay
Richards Bay has a warm, humid subtropical climate with long daylight hours but frequent coastal cloud and heavy summer rain. The City of uMhlathuze supplies the town while Eskom serves outlying areas, and grid-tied and hybrid systems must be registered and approved by the supplier. Salt air and humidity are hard on frames, cables and fixings, so marine-grade mounting and corrosion protection are important, and coastal wind and summer storms add load. Port, smelter, timber and sugar industries have large warehouse roofs ideal for commercial arrays, while Meerensee and Aquadene have tiled homes and holiday apartments. Hybrid backup, solar geysers and commercial rooftops are widely requested.

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