You've probably noticed those sleek solar panels popping up on roofs across your neighborhood. But what's driving this shift?

With electricity prices soaring 15% nationally since January 2023, households are finding solar panels sort of... necessary.
Let's face it – home solar systems aren't just tree-hugger tech anymore. With Port Elizabeth's electricity prices jumping 18% this year alone, families are getting creative. Remember when load shedding was just an occasional nuisance? Now it's sort of a daily roulette game. But here's the kicker: Nelson Mandela Bay gets 300+ sunny days annually. Why aren't we harnessing that?
You've probably noticed your neighbor's roof gleaming with photovoltaic panels. Last month alone, City of Cape Town approved over 1,200 home solar installations - that's triple 2021 numbers. But what's really driving this surge?

Last month, a client nearly faced fines because their installer used non-compliant inverters.
You’ve probably heard solar LED bulbs can slash energy bills by 40%–so why do so many homeowners report dim lights and frequent recharging? The culprit often isn’t the panel or battery.
