Grid Tied Solar Systems
Grid Tied Solar Systems uses the sun to generate electricity during daylight hours and therefore has no continual costs once the system is installed.
In detail…
No batteries are required. Grid Tied Solar Systems supplements your grid energy usage and is an excellent option for reducing your electricity usage from the grid.
In the event of a blackout or power outage, your solar system is forced to shut down. While Eskom’s outages are now unpredictable, cost savings most certainly are.
That is why this highly practical solution dramatically reduces your electricity bill while producing all your daytime energy requirements, free from the sun, and avoiding the additional expenses of having a battery system.
A Grid tie system is highly cost-effective and has a much shorter payback period. A popular choice for starting out with your first solar energy solution. This system starts paying for itself immediately.
Advantages
- Most cost-effective solution – offers the best savings
- No energy storage losses
- Easily monitored system performance
- Extremely high conversion efficiencies
- Simple installation
Disadvantages
- Does not provide backup
In detail…
Grid connection and batteries are commonly referred to as a Hybrid system and will act as a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) in the event of a power outage.
The Hybrid Solar Systems will charge up the batteries, and the excess production will supplement your household/ business energy needs.
Advantages
- Can operate independently of the Grid
- Available in various configurations
- Reliable supply of power when using a generator
- Fast switch over in case of power black-out
- Supplies power even if no grid is available
Disadvantages
- Battery daily cycles could shorten battery life
- Batteries need to carry 3 days of autonomy
- Quality batteries are expensive
- Batteries lifespan is less than that of Inverter and PV Modules
Hybrid Solar Systems
Hybrid Solar Systems use the sun to generate electricity during daylight hours and therefore have no continual costs involved once the system is installed.
Off-Grid Solar Systems
Off-Grid Solar Systems use the sun to generate electricity during daylight hours and therefore have no continual costs once the system is installed.
In detail…
Off-grid solar systems are helpful for areas where no grid exists, such as plots, farms or rural areas. The energy produced will charge up the batteries, which should allow up to three days’ worth of energy needs, feeding the power requirements of the property.
Advantages
- Can operate independently of the Grid
- Available in various configurations
- Reliable supply of power when using a generator
- Supplies power even if no grid is available
Disadvantages
- Battery daily cycles could shorten battery life
- Once batteries are fully charged the PV power is dissipated
- Batteries need to carry 3 days of autonomy
- Quality batteries are expensive
- Batteries lifespan is less than that of Inverter and PV Modules
Backup Power Systems
Backup power systems are designed to charge internal batteries when Eskom electricity becomes available.
In detail…
An uninterrupted power supply is crucial for any operation, making backup power systems essential.
Backup power systems use an inverter and batteries to supply power to critical loads when a power failure occurs. The supply of power when the grid fails is almost instantaneous making it the perfect option for powering household appliances and office equipment.
Advantages
- Instantaneous supply of power when the grid fails
- The system protects appliances and equipment from power surges
- Most systems can be converted to solar at a later stage
- The system size can be increased as the demand changes
- Backup systems require very little maintenance
Disadvantages
- A backup inverter system does cost more than generators

We offer and supply high-quality solar geysers. Our professional solar geyser installers are well-equipped to install high-quality solar geysers and give advice for all our solar geyser products
Advantages:
- Choice of size: Proper sizing is essential, as homeowners must have enough storage to meet 90 to 100 per cent of their hot water needs. Storage volume is also a consideration. A 50- to 60-gallon storage tank is fine for up to three people, an 80-gallon tank for up to four people, and a larger one for as many as six people.
- Less space: Solar thermal panels are usually less space-intensive than photovoltaic panels. Fewer are required to heat water than in an array used to produce sufficient power for a home.
- High efficiency: About 80 per cent of the sun’s radiation is turned into the heat energy needed to obtain hot water at home.
- Cost savings: The cost of two or three panels is cheaper than larger domestic installations. You also save on fuel bills for supplying gas heating systems.
- Low maintenance: After installation, little maintenance is required, and a solar water heater can run for up to 20 years.
- Lower carbon footprint: A home can be eco-friendlier, plus tax incentives may be available for using renewable energy.
Disadvantages:
- Compared to photovoltaic panels, solar thermal panels only heat water.
- Solar heaters require sufficient roof space to accommodate them.
- Solar water heaters require direct sunlight to function.
- The system does not function on cloudy, rainy, or foggy days.
- Annual maintenance is recommended to check the pump and antifreeze.
- Installation requires the use of a new hot water cylinder.
Solar Geyser Systems
A solar geyser provides you with enough hot water during times of load-shedding which is almost every day.
