Frequently Asked Questions

Solar panels work in a series of simple yet powerful steps.

Step 1: The sun shines onto the solar panel modules, creating electrical charges.

Step 2: These charges move within each solar panel cell due to an internal electric field, generating electricity.

Step 3: An inverter converts the generated direct current (DC) electricity into alternating current (AC).

Step 4: The AC electricity powers your home or workplace, providing a reliable, continued energy source.

While solar panels cannot generate electricity at night, they can still provide power if you have solar power batteries installed. This ensures a continuous and reliable energy supply, even when the sun is not shining. When it comes to installing solar panels in South Africa, most setups include batteries to ensure a continued supply of electricity even during the night.

The price of solar panels varies but is typically R45,000 to R70,000 for a residential system. Individual panels can cost anywhere between R1800 to R4200 per panel. Factors like size, quality, and installation all influence the cost of solar panels. Professional energy assessments by experts who specialise in solar panel installation help determine the right system size and cost for your needs and location.

The number of solar panels you’ll need  depends on factors like your energy usage, location, and panel efficiency. On average, a residential system might require 15 to 25 panels, generating about 6-8 kW. Professional assessments consider your specific needs and available roof space. Consult a solar installer for an accurate estimate tailored to your situation, ensuring optimal energy production. Most solar panel manufacturers in South Africa will be able to give you a professional energy audit or refer you to someone who can help.

Clean solar panels ensure optimal efficiency, so to get the most out of your solar panel installation, regular cleaning is essential. Use a soft brush or sponge with soapy water to gently scrub away dirt and debris. Rinse with water. Avoid abrasive materials to prevent damage. For safety, clean in the morning or evening when panels are cool. Regular cleaning, typically twice a year, helps maintain peak solar performance.
