A South African solar manufacturer, ARTsolar, is taking the government and several renewable energy developers to court. The case focuses on local content rules for renewable energy
The resurgence of load shedding in South Africa has sparked a significant rise in solar power adoption and inverter sales among consumers.
South Africa''s private solar installations have declined due to reduced load-shedding, but Eskom could help fuel a resurgence another way.
With load shedding reaching record levels in 2025—over 280 days of power cuts this year alone—South Africans are turning to solar solutions like never before. Solar inverters, the unsung heroes of
Researchers have investigated the impact of households in South Africa turning to non-solar linked inverters to escape load shedding - and the results are problematic.
Amid a surge in demand for solar backup systems driven by increased load-shedding, Cape Town is clamping down on faulty installations by banning off-grid inverters for grid-connected
Noticing this shift, the Competition Commission conducted a survey on the state of competition and the use of solar PV panels, inverters, and storage batteries by households and
