Solar in Tzaneen

Tzaneen is greener and more humid than the rest of Limpopo, with plenty of summer cloud and rain but still good sunshine through the dry winter months. Electricity comes from the Greater Tzaneen Municipality in town and from Eskom across the farms and valley, and grid-tied or hybrid systems need approval from whichever supplier serves the property. Hillside homes, lodges, packhouses and cold stores have tile and IBR roofs, often facing awkward angles. Heavy storms bring lightning and hail, and humidity encourages mould and bird droppings on panels. Fruit farms look at solar for cold rooms and irrigation pumps, while homeowners ask about hybrid backup and solar geysers.

Typical solar panels requests in the area come from:

• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: off-grid and hybrid systems, borehole pumps, ground-mounted arrays and solar lights for the yard
• 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
• 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
