What to ask Solar Shine Energy Pty Ltd 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.
- 1There 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.
What solar is worth at this location
Ladysmith averages 5.4 kWh/m²/day across the year, dropping to 4.4 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 17.2 kWh on an average winter day, 24.6 kWh in summer, and about 7 687 kWh a year. Ladysmith records some of the highest summer roof temperatures in the province, and panel output falls as cell temperature rises. A properly ventilated mounting gap and a panel with a low temperature coefficient are worth more here than an extra panel would be.
