What this business's certifications actually buy you

This listing states: BBBEE_L1, BBBEE_L2. Here is what each of those means in practice, and what it does not cover.

Certifications are self-declared on unclaimed listings and are not independently audited by SolarZA. Ask for the certificate number and check it with the issuing body before you sign anything.

What to ask Classy Solar before you sign

These questions are generated from what this specific listing does and does not tell us. They are not accusations - a gap in a directory record usually means nobody has filled it in yet - but they are the gaps you should close yourself.

• 1The listed certifications do not mention a Certificate of Compliance. A COC is a legal requirement for the electrical work, not an optional extra, so confirm in writing that one will be issued and registered in your name.
• 2There is little or no public review history on file. Ask for two reference installations completed in the last year within 30 km of you, and phone them. A small review count is not a red flag on its own - plenty of good installers never chase reviews - but it does mean you have to do the verification yourself.
• 3This business advertises a wide service area. Confirm who physically attends a callout at your address and what the response time is, because a wide footprint is often subcontracted and the warranty conversation gets complicated when the installing team is not the contracted party.

What solar is worth at this location

Welkom averages 5.8 kWh/m²/day across the year, dropping to 4.5 in June. On those figures a 5 kW array with a 5 kWh battery - the most commonly quoted household system in South Africa - generates roughly 17.6 kWh on an average winter day, 27.7 kWh in summer, and about 8 256 kWh a year. Matjhabeng carries one of the largest Eskom bulk-supply debts in the country and has been subject to supply interruption on that basis, separately from load shedding. Local demand accordingly skews toward battery autonomy over pure grid-tied yield.
