Solar Panel Installation in Durban

Load-shedding made solar a need-to-have in Durban, not a nice-to-have. But a solar system is only as good as the person who installs it — get the sizing or the wiring wrong and you've spent a lot of money on a setup that still leaves you in the dark. We're registered electricians first, so your panels, inverter and battery are wired into your DB board safely, signed off with a COC, and sized to do what you actually want.

Grid-tie, hybrid or off-grid

Sizing it to your home

The biggest mistake people make is buying off a price list instead of off their actual usage. We look at what you run, when you run it, and what you most want covered when the power's out — then size the panels, inverter and battery to match. Want to keep the lights, fridge, Wi-Fi and a few plugs alive on a sensible budget? Easy. Want to run the geyser and air-con through the worst of load-shedding? That's a bigger system and we'll tell you so honestly, rather than overselling you something you don't need.

Just want backup, not panels?

If your main goal is keeping the lights on during load-shedding and you're not ready for a full roof of panels, an inverter and battery backup on its own may be the smarter first step — and you can add solar later. For hot water specifically, a solar geyser takes your single biggest electrical load off the system entirely. We install across the metro, from Hillcrest and the Upper Highway down to the coast.
