Let the sun pay your bills. Solar PV and battery systems for homes, businesses and estates, engineered in-house and installed by accredited teams.
Drag through the day, then switch the grid off. A hybrid system keeps the lights on.
Panels capture sunlight. The silicon cells release energy as direct current (DC) electricity.
The inverter converts DC into alternating current (AC) that your home or business can use.
Surplus energy charges the battery, or is fed back into the grid where allowed.
When you need more than the panels and battery give, the grid tops you up.

Yes. Panels do not need direct sunlight to work. Output drops on cloudy days, but even in a South African winter they produce enough to make a real difference to your bill.
