What do you need your system to do?

Your ideal setup depends on what you want to power, protect or improve. Start with the outcome you want, then find the system that fits.

Keep the essentials running

Prioritise important household systems during power interruptions.

  • Lights
  • Wi-Fi
  • Fridge/freezer
  • Security systems

Reduce grid reliance

Use solar generation to supply more of your home's electricity during the day.

Power more of your home

Consider a larger system around higher household consumption and additional appliances.

Store energy for later

Battery storage can make available energy useful beyond the hours when solar is generating.

Questions, answered

Questions Johannesburg homeowners ask before going solar.

Clear starting points before you request a home energy assessment or a solar quote.

How much does a residential solar system cost?+
There isn't one useful solar system cost for every home. System size, electricity usage, battery capacity, equipment and installation requirements all affect the total. A proper assessment is the better starting point, get a solar quote and we'll walk you through it.
How many solar panels does a home need?+
It depends on your energy consumption, available roof space, panel output and the rest of the system. The goal is to size the installation around your household rather than choose a panel count at random.
Do I need both solar panels and a battery?+
Not necessarily. A solar battery installation is useful when backup power during load shedding and storing solar energy for later use are important priorities. Your usage pattern and goals should guide the decision.
How long does solar installation take?+
Installation time depends on the system, property and site requirements. Your specific timeline should be confirmed during the assessment and planning process.
Can battery backup power my entire house through load shedding?+
A suitably designed home battery backup system can cover a significant portion of household demand, but the answer depends on your consumption, system size, battery storage and whether the property remains connected to the grid.
Can I add batteries to an existing solar system?+
Potentially. Existing equipment, system architecture and compatibility need to be assessed first. Tell us what you already have and what you want to improve.
