Grid-tied solar
Generate your own power during the day and reduce your Eskom draw significantly. Best for homes with consistent daytime usage and lower load shedding exposure.
RESIDENTIAL SOLAR & BATTERY STORAGE
Take back control of your electricity costs with a solar system designed specifically for your household: honest sizing, quality components, and real savings from day one.
01 / THE CASE FOR HOME SOLAR
Tariffs rise every year. Load shedding continues. The only reliable way to protect yourself is to reduce your dependence on the grid, and solar is the most cost-effective way to do it.
A home system is not a gadget. It is a 25-year asset, and it should be specified like one.
With the right system in place, most homeowners see
02 / OUR APPROACH
We design the system that delivers the best financial return, not the largest system we can sell you.
We don't sell off-the-shelf packages. Every residential installation starts with understanding your actual energy usage, your budget, your roof, and your goals.
Our residential installations use proven, bankable components: panels, inverters and batteries from manufacturers with strong warranty backing and long track records in South African conditions.
Every home assessment starts with
03 / YOUR OPTIONS
Which one is right depends on how your household uses power, how exposed you are to outages, and what you want the system to do in ten years' time.
Generate your own power during the day and reduce your Eskom draw significantly. Best for homes with consistent daytime usage and lower load shedding exposure.
Store excess generation for use in the evenings or during outages. The most popular configuration for South African conditions: maximum savings, maximum protection.
Full energy independence. Optimised for maximum self-sufficiency, with grid connection maintained as a backup. Ideal for higher-usage homes or those seeking long-term independence.
04 / THE NUMBERS
Every proposal we issue includes detailed financial modelling. This is the same arithmetic, running live. Set it to your household's monthly bill and see the shape of the case before you speak to us.
Indicative only. Figures assume a well-oriented array at 1 650 kWh/kWp/yr, 0.5% annual module degradation, and installed costs typical for each scale. Real proposals are modelled against your actual tariff structure, load profile and site constraints, including demand charges, which are not represented here. Section 12B tax treatment is not included.
GET STARTED
The assessment is free and there is no obligation. We look at your actual usage, your roof and your goals, then show you the numbers behind the system we would recommend.
FOURTEEN MILLISECONDS
Drawn to scale against a 20 ms mains cycle. When Eskom returns, the inverter cannot simply reconnect — it has to match phase first. That is what the synchroscope on the right is for, and the breaker closes only when the needle sits at twelve o’clock.
230 V RMS, 50 Hz. Shown at 1/20 speed. The breaker closes on measured phase and slip, never on a timer.
MEASURE THIS ROOF
Hold it flat against the roof and this reads the tilt and the direction off the device sensors, then integrates a full year of sun angles for that exact plane. On a desktop, or if you decline the sensor, the sliders do the same job and it says so.
Needs a phone and a secure connection. Sliders work everywhere.
Beam, diffuse and ground-reflected components summed hourly across the year, performance ratio 0.80, ground albedo 0.20.
ONE CELL, A THIRD OF THE MODULE
Move the pointer onto the module. Whatever you cover goes into reverse bias and starts dissipating heat instead of making power, until its bypass diode conducts and takes that entire third of the module out. The thermal field and the electrical loss are solved together.
Steady-state heat equation relaxed on the cell grid with a convective loss term, ambient 28 °C. Three bypass groups, as a 72-cell module really has.
