Solar in Secunda

Secunda is a planned town on the flat Mpumalanga Highveld with strong winter sun, cold dry nights and summer storms that bring hail and lightning. Electricity is supplied by Govan Mbeki Local Municipality and Eskom, and grid-tied or hybrid systems need approval from whichever one serves the property. Neat suburbs, townhouse complexes and newer estates have tiled roofs suited to hybrid backup with lithium batteries, while contractors and industrial service businesses have large sheeted roofs for commercial solar. Smoke and industrial fallout from the surrounding plants can dirty panels, so washing and access should be planned. Farms around Trichardt and Bethal use solar for borehole pumping and cold storage.

Typical solar panels requests in the area come from:

• Family homes: rooftop panels with a hybrid inverter and battery for load-shedding, often with a solar geyser
• Townhouses and flats: small backup systems and a few panels, with body-corporate approval for the roof
• 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
• Estate homes: neat flush-mounted arrays on double-storey homes, approved by the estate's design rules
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: off-grid and hybrid systems, borehole pumps, ground-mounted arrays and solar lights for the yard
