Four ways off the tariff treadmill
Hybrid solar + battery
Panels, inverter and lithium storage. Power your home from sunlight by day, your battery by night, and the grid only when you choose to.
Backup power
Inverter and battery only — the fastest way to keep lights, Wi-Fi, the fridge and the gate running through any outage. Solar-ready for later.
Solar geysers & heat pumps
Your geyser is 40–50% of your bill. Solar water heating is the cheapest single cut you can make to it.
Commercial & complexes
Sectional-title and small-business systems, from body-corporate proposals to full installation and monitoring.

Installation & CoC
Most homes are done in 1–2 days, with SSEG registration and a Certificate of Compliance included.
The arithmetic only moves one way
Eskom tariffs rose over 12% in 2025 and municipal rates followed. Every year you wait, the grid gets more expensive and your payback period gets shorter. Most East Rand homes now recover a hybrid system's cost in 5–8 years — then generate free power for the next 20.
Local installers, local roofs
Frequently asked questions
How much does a solar system cost on the East Rand?
A backup-only inverter and battery setup typically starts around R45,000–R75,000 installed. A full 5kW hybrid system with a lithium battery generally runs R95,000–R140,000, depending on your roof, panel count and battery size. Full pricing guide here.
Do I need municipal approval?
Grid-tied and hybrid systems in Ekurhuleni must be registered as Small-Scale Embedded Generation (SSEG). Your installer handles the paperwork and issues a Certificate of Compliance (CoC) — both are included in our partners' quotes.
How long does installation take?
Most residential systems are installed in 1–2 days. From accepting your quote to switch-on is typically 2–3 weeks including SSEG registration.
What warranties apply?
Tier-1 panels carry 25-year performance warranties. Inverters and lithium batteries typically carry 5–10 years, plus a workmanship warranty on the installation itself.
Is financing available?
Yes — most installers offer rent-to-own or finance options, and several banks now fund solar through home-loan facilities. Ask for finance options on your quote.
