Hybrid Commercial Solar engineered for commercial and industrial facilities in Polokwane

High Eskom tariffs and power instability directly affect commercial and industrial facilities operations across Polokwane, Capricorn. Reyds provides engineered, three-phase commercial solar PV and battery storage systems tailored for daytime load shifting and peak demand clipping. Sites in Polokwane sit on the N1 North corridor, where rising demand charges and outage risk make generation on site the lowest-risk hedge available.

Solar PV paired with LFP storage so production carries critical load through load shedding and evening peak tariffs.

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 Polokwane Municipality account entirely.

Questions from Polokwane operators

How long does a 100kW installation in Polokwane take?

A 100kW plant on a facility in Polokwane typically takes 4 to 10 weeks from signed order, including structural assessment, Polokwane Municipality SSEG paperwork and commissioning.

Do we need approval from Polokwane Municipality?

Yes. Any grid-connected embedded generation in Polokwane, Capricorn 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 facility account.
