Solar Power in South Africa

Years ago, there was not much interest in Solar Technology in South Africa. Solar Panels were a rare site, largely limited to the roofs of few affluent households. This is changing rapidly, driven by three Factors: Worldwide drive toward renewable energy, a highly strained local electricity supply and a steady drop in solar panel prices


The Power of the Sun in South Africa

Most areas in South Africa average more than 2 500 hours of sunshine per year, and average solar-radiation levels between 4.5 and 6.5kWh/m2 in just one day

There’s a big difference between needs and requirements for grid-based electricity versus those for distributed rural homes or remote locations, or even rooftop solar, where photovoltaics do OK. The more economical a technology is, the faster we’ll see adoption. -Vinod Khosla

MONOCRYSTALLINE

Monocrystalline panels have higher efficiencies in the range of 15-20%.
Monocrystalline Solar Panels Efficiency: 15-20% Range and it's expected to get even higher. Cost: Higher Cost Temperature: -0.3% / C to -0.5% / C this means that when the temperature rises 32 degrees the solar cell will lose 0.3 - 0.5% of its efficiency. Lifespan: Most monocrystalline panels have a lifespan from 30 - 40years sometimes more.

POLYCRYSTALLINE

Polycrystalline panels have lower efficiency rates typically in the 13-16% range.
Polycrystalline Solar Panels Efficiency: 13 - 16% Range and it's expected to get even higher Cost: More Cost efficient Temperature: When the temperature rises the cells lose more of their efficiency because they are not optimal to be used in hot areas. Lifespan: Most polycrystalline panels have a lifespan from 25 - 30years sometimes more.
