Solar in Welkom
Welkom has flat, open plains with clear skies and good sunshine through most of the year, and cold, bright winter days. Electricity is supplied by the Matjhabeng Local Municipality, with Eskom serving some surrounding areas, and grid-tied or hybrid systems must be registered and approved by the relevant supplier. Mine-era brick houses with tiled or corrugated roofs make up much of the housing, alongside businesses and workshops with large steel roofs. Hail, lightning and strong dry-season wind are the main risks, and dust settles on panels. Households interested in load-shedding backup and lower bills ask about hybrid systems and solar geysers, while farms look at pumps.

Typical solar pool heating requests in the area come from:
- Family homes: black collectors on a garage or pool-house roof, extending the swimming season for a family pool
- Shops, offices and schools: heating for guesthouse, hotel or school pools used for lessons, with covers to keep the heat in
- Factories and warehouses: large collector arrays for gym, club or hydrotherapy pools alongside existing plant and pumps
- Farms, smallholdings and lodges: ground-mounted or shed-roof collectors for lodge, guesthouse and farmhouse pools with space to spare
- Townhouses and flats: heating for a communal pool, agreed with the body corporate and installed on a shared roof
- Estate homes: discreet collectors placed to suit estate design rules, often on a lapa or outbuilding roof
