Business solar in Pretoria

Rooftop solar for offices, workshops and small factories, designed around your daytime load.

Businesses use most of their power while the sun is up, which makes solar a strong fit. We design from your actual load profile and give you a written estimate of production, savings and payback, with every assumption shown.

Good for

  • Offices, practices and retail premises with steady daytime use
  • Workshops and light industry with machinery on a timer
  • Landlords adding solar to multi-tenant buildings

What is included

  • Load profile review from your bills or a logger fitted for a week
  • Grid-tied or hybrid design, with battery storage where it pays

  • Optional maintenance plan with scheduled cleaning and inspection

Questions

Business solar: common questions.

Is there a tax benefit for business solar?

Section 12B of the Income Tax Act allows a business to deduct the full cost of solar PV under 1 MW in the year it is brought into use. The enhanced 125% deduction under section 12BA ended on 28 February 2025. Check how this applies to your business with your tax practitioner.

Can you work around our trading hours?

Yes. Most of the roof work happens without affecting you, and we schedule the connection for a weekend or after hours.

Do we need batteries?

Not always. If you use most of your power in the day, a grid-tied system without batteries often gives the quickest payback. We show you both options.
