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 street lights requests in the area come from:

• Factories and warehouses: perimeter and yard pole lights for depots, mines and factories, often in larger numbers
• Shops, offices and schools: pole lights over car parks and entrances that stay on during load-shedding
• Family homes: solar lights for a cul-de-sac, shared driveway or community park where the municipality has no budget
• Farms, smallholdings and lodges: lights along farm roads, worker housing and loading areas, with no cable trenching across fields
• Townhouses and flats: pole lights over visitor parking and complex access roads, installed with body-corporate consent
• Estate homes: evenly spaced poles along internal roads and walkways, with controlled glare and trustee approval
