- Clear winters. Dry, sunny Highveld winters mean output in Sunninghill drops far less in June than it does at the coast, but short days still matter for battery sizing.
- Flats and complexes. Complexes in Sunninghill usually need trustee approval for anything on the roof. Many owners start with an inverter and battery indoors.
- Daytime businesses. Offices, shops and practices in Sunninghill use most of their power in daylight, which makes commercial solar straightforward to size.
Registration and Compliance in Sunninghill
Most properties in Sunninghill buy electricity from City Power, Johannesburg's municipal utility. City Power expects solar and installed battery systems to be approved before they are installed, even if you never export. Parts of Sunninghill are supplied directly by Eskom, so check who your bill comes from first.
- Pre-approval. An application to City Power's SSEG office, followed by a site inspection, before the system goes in.
- Documents. Single-line diagram, NRS 097-2-1 inverter certificate, then the CoC and PV commissioning form after installation.
- Metering. City Power fits a bidirectional smart meter at your cost and moves SSEG customers from prepaid to postpaid. Ask what that does to your fixed charges.
- Eskom accounts. If your bill comes from Eskom, register with Eskom instead. See SSEG registration.
Before You Appoint an Installer
