Solar can cut energy costs and keep you running during load-shedding, but only if the system type matches what you need.
Grid-tied
Panels feed your building alongside the grid. Lowest cost and no batteries, but most grid-tied systems switch off when the grid fails, so they do not help during outages.
Hybrid
Panels, an inverter and batteries work with the grid. Solar powers the day, batteries carry critical loads through outages, and the grid fills any gap. This is the usual choice for businesses facing load-shedding.
Off-grid
Fully independent of the grid, so batteries and often a generator must cover every night and cloudy day. Best for remote sites without a reliable grid connection.
Whichever you choose, size it from a measured load profile. Our engineers can survey your site and design the right system.
