Solar in Kariega

Kariega, still called Uitenhage by many, lies in a drier pocket behind Gqeberha at the foot of the Winterhoek mountains, with more sunshine than the coast and less sea mist. Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality supplies the town, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved with it. Wind is frequent, so engineered mounting and secure fixings are important, and summer can be hot. Older single-storey houses have corrugated or tiled roofs, while the motor industry and its suppliers have large flat or sheeted roofs well suited to commercial systems. Citrus and farm work around Addo drives interest in solar pumps, cold rooms and hybrid backup.

Typical solar panels requests in the area come from:

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