The Advantages of Solar Energy in South Africa
Drastically reduce or even eliminate your electric bills
Whether you’re a homeowner, business, or non-profit, electricity costs can make up a large portion of your monthly expenses. With a Victron solar system, you’ll generate free power for your system’s entire 25+ year lifecycle. Even if you don’t produce 100 percent of the energy you consume, solar will reduce your utility bills and you’ll still save a lot of money.
Protect against rising energy costs
One of the most clear cut benefits of solar panels is the ability to hedge utility prices. In the past ten years, residential electricity prices have gone up by an average of 12 percent annually or more. By investing in a solar energy system now, you can fix your electricity rate and protect yourself against unpredictable increases in electricity costs. If you’re a business or homeowner with fluctuating cash flow, going solar also helps you forecast and manage your expenses.
Increase your property value
Multiple studies have found that homes equipped with solar energy systems have higher property values and sell more quickly than non-solar homes. Appraisers are increasingly taking solar installations into consideration as they value homes at the time of a sale, and as homebuyers become more educated about solar, demand for properties equipped with solar panel systems will continue to grow.
