Solar Installation in Gauteng

Gauteng runs on electricity, and when the grid stutters, homes and businesses feel it immediately. We install solar and battery backup across Johannesburg, Pretoria, and the wider metro — keeping the lights, Wi-Fi, and security systems on through every stage of load shedding.

Why solar makes sense in Gauteng

  • Gauteng households carry some of the highest electricity bills in the country, so a right-sized solar system starts cutting costs from month one.
  • Frequent, higher-stage load shedding makes battery backup the priority here — we design hybrid systems that switch over seamlessly.
  • Dense rooftops and complex tariffs mean sizing matters: we measure your actual usage rather than selling you a generic package.

Best suited for

Urban homes and businesses that need reliable load-shedding backup and a fast return on a high electricity bill.

What to know about solar in Gauteng

Gauteng is supplied by a patchwork of distributors — Eskom alongside City Power in Johannesburg, plus the Tshwane and Ekurhuleni municipalities — so your system has to be registered with whichever utility serves your address. Most metros now require an approved bi-directional meter before any surplus power can be exported, which we factor into the design from the start.
