1MW engineered for Industrial Parks in Rosslyn
High Eskom tariffs and power instability directly affect industrial parks operations across Rosslyn, Pretoria. Reyds provides engineered, three-phase commercial solar PV and battery storage systems tailored for daytime load shifting and peak demand clipping. Sites in Rosslyn sit on the N4 Platinum Corridor, where shared metering and constrained supply capacity make generation on site the lowest-risk hedge available.
Structural assessment and non-penetrative mounting for IBR, corrugated, standing seam and concrete roof decks. Industrial Parks carry a load profile dominated by multi-tenant mixed light industrial load, which is exactly where solar generation overlaps hardest with your billing peaks.
Pair your cooling, refrigeration and commercial aircon systems directly with solar PV generation to cut high peak-demand electrical charges. Thermal pre-cooling during peak irradiance hours shifts chiller demand off the City of Tshwane account entirely.

Questions from Rosslyn operators
How long does a 1MW installation in Rosslyn take?
A 1MW plant on a industrial park in Rosslyn typically takes 4 to 10 weeks from signed order, including structural assessment, City of Tshwane SSEG paperwork and commissioning.
Do we need approval from City of Tshwane?
Yes. Any grid-connected embedded generation in Rosslyn, Pretoria must be registered as SSEG. Reyds handles the full application, professional engineer sign-off and NRS 097-2-1 compliance documentation.
Can the system run our aircon and refrigeration during load shedding?
With hybrid inverters and LFP storage, cooling, refrigeration and commercial aircon can be carried through outages while also clipping peak-demand charges on your industrial park account.
