Harvesting the sun's energy

for your Financial benefit.

Grid-Tied Solar Systems

A grid-tied solar system is the first and most economical step to reduce monthly electricity bills and offer the best Return on Investment. This is ideal for a property where most of the electricity usage is consumed during the day.

Solar Geysers

Solar geysers rely on the sun’s energy to heat water and is capable of heating water up to 90°C. As a result, water heating costs should decrease by 40%+ whilst providing for up to 90% of your water heating needs. This is a massive saving for the average person resulting in a ROI within 2-3 years. Solar Geysers can effectively provide warm water for up to 15 years, if not longer.

Hybrid Solar Systems

Hybrid solar systems generate power in the same way as the common grid-tie solar system but use special hybrid inverters and batteries to store energy for later use e.g. as a backup power supply during load shedding, similar to a UPS system.

Retrofit Solar Geyser

Conversion is an installation where either a flat plate kit or an evacuated tube kit is connected to an existing electric geyser as a pre-feed. The conversion kit is used to pre-heat water and feed this hot water into the existing electric geyser with hot water thereby ensuring that the electric geyser is hot all the time, therefore minimizing or even eliminating the need to use the electric element.

Off Grid Solar Systems

An off-grid system is not connected to the electricity grid and must be designed appropriately so that they will generate enough power to cater for days of poor weather conditions and in the depths of winter when there is generally much less sunlight. The high cost of batteries and off-grid inverters means off-grid systems are much more expensive but can be designed to run in conjunction with generators, and even to use generators to recharge the batteries. It is ideal for new or remote installations.

Battery Backup Solutions

The current and frequent load shedding coupled with the noise, inconvenience and cost of a generator is an ever-increasing frustration. Battery Backup Power Systems will provide you with backup power when you need it and could be expanded to a hybrid solar system with the correct choice of initial components. When the power goes out, the system will automatically start to operate within a split second.
