OVERVIEW: Amid South Africaâs worsening load-shedding crisis, this homeowner in Pimville turned to Solys Electronics for a reliable, hybrid solar power solution. The goal: not to go fully off-grid, but to strike a balance between managing rising electricity costs and surviving unpredictable power outages.
THE CHALLENGE: At the time, power cuts stretched up to 6 hours a day â leaving families unable to cook, warm food, or even stay warm during the bitter winter nights. Many residents lost stored groceries due to fridge outages, with no warning or relief in sight.
Scope and Execution
We designed and installed a solar power system that:
- Seamlessly kicks in during load-shedding
- Powers essentials like lights, refrigeration, Wi-Fi, and small appliances
- Helps reduce monthly electricity bills through smart energy use
OUTCOME:
The client now enjoys uninterrupted access to basic comforts â especially during evening blackouts. Itâs a solution built for real life: affordable, practical, and protective.
HIGHLIGHTS:Â
â
Load-shedding resilience (up to 6 hrs coverage)
â
Energy cost savings
â
Quiet operation, low maintenance
â
Winter-ready â lights, heaters, and food kept running
