Solar in North West

North West is among the sunniest parts of the country, with long dry spells, clear skies and very hot summers. Eskom supplies many towns and rural areas directly, while municipalities such as Rustenburg, Matlosana and Tlokwe handle their own networks, and each has its own embedded-generation approval process for grid-tied and hybrid systems. Farms use solar for borehole pumps, irrigation, dairies and cold rooms, and mine-town homes and businesses want backup power. Heat and dust reduce output if panels are left uncleaned, and summer thunderstorms bring hail and lightning. Roofs are mostly IBR sheeting on farm buildings and concrete tile on town houses, with open ground for mounting.

Typical solar street lights requests in the area come from:

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