Solar in Sandton

Sandton enjoys the clear Highveld sun that most of Johannesburg does, with bright, dry winters and summer storms. It is supplied mainly by City Power, with Eskom serving a few pockets, and grid-tied and hybrid systems must be registered and approved before they are switched on. The skyline of offices and apartment towers has roofs and podiums that are often shaded or crowded with plant, so layout needs design input. Large houses behind high walls have tile, slate or flat roofs that suit hybrid systems with sizeable batteries. Body corporates and sectional-title schemes need trustees to approve solar. Hail and lightning call for sturdy mounting and surge protection.

Typical solar street lights requests in the area come from:

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