Solar in Centurion

Centurion gets excellent Highveld sunshine, with dry, bright winters and hot summers broken by afternoon storms. The area falls under the City of Tshwane, so grid-tied and hybrid systems need registration and approval with the municipality, and estates often add their own rules. Most homes are modern double-storey houses with concrete tile roofs inside security and golf estates, along with large townhouse complexes and business parks near Samrand and Route 21. Body corporates and homeowners associations usually need to approve panels, so check this early. Hail and lightning are real risks in summer. Hybrid systems with lithium batteries and solar geysers are common here, and business parks look at large rooftop installations.

Typical solar panels requests in the area come from:

• Estate homes: neat flush-mounted arrays on double-storey homes, approved by the estate's design rules
• Townhouses and flats: small backup systems and a few panels, with body-corporate approval for the roof
• Family homes: rooftop panels with a hybrid inverter and battery for load-shedding, often with a solar geyser
• Shops, offices and schools: daytime-load rooftop systems for offices, shops, schools and clinics, with backup for tills and IT
• Factories and warehouses: large grid-tied arrays on warehouse and factory roofs and carports, sized to the daytime load
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: off-grid and hybrid systems, borehole pumps, ground-mounted arrays and solar lights for the yard
