Frequently asked questions
How long does the installation process take?
For retail sites, installation typically takes between 4 and 8 weeks, depending on the size of your store and the complexity of the system. We start with a detailed assessment and planning phase, then handle all permits, compliance, and coordination to ensure minimal disruption to your operations.
What maintenance is required for the solar system?
Commercial Solar Power for Retailers is low-maintenance, but regular panel cleaning and periodic system checks are essential to maintaining peak performance.
Are there any government incentives for installing solar panels?
Yes. In South Africa, businesses can benefit from Section 12B tax incentives, allowing you to deduct the full cost of a qualifying solar system in the first year. Depending on your setup, you may also qualify for local rebates or feed-in tariffs with your municipality or Eskom.
