History

Learn More About One of the Leading Solar Power Companies in South Africa

Our company has a rich history dating back to 1987. As one of South Africa’s first Solar Water Heater companies, we blazed many trails that simply weren’t there. In 2010, we were joined by the former Managing Director of Shell Solar for Southern Africa, who went on to transform Solaray into a broadly based Solar Energy Company that covers Photovoltaic (PV) as well as thermal applications.

Throughout this period, we developed a number of advanced products including our patented Solar Water Heaters.We also registered patents for our PV concentrator systems, Solar module support structures, PV panel tracking systems, and differential temperature control systems for circulating water heating. More recently, we also developed a premier range of Solar PV and Solar thermal kits, expertly designed to make it easier for customers to select the products best suited to their needs.

One of The Leading Solar Companies in South Africa

Our initial inception was necessitated by us identifying a need for Solar Companies in South Africa. The country and region needed companies to usher this technology into the marketplace. Since our inception, we’ve grown to become true industry leaders in our sector, and we continue to work hard to build on this great reputation.

We’ve also been focused on bringing our core strengths of system design, project management and finance to bear on larger turnkey PV and thermal installations in the sub-Sahara Africa region. This has proven to be a major growth area, as national electricity prices continue to rise to a level that makes Solar Energy a natural economic alternative.

Throughout our long history of excellent service, we’ve grown to become experts at residential and business and government Renewable Energy solutions. Our residential PV and thermal installations are ideal for:

  • Houses and lodges;
  • Holiday homes;
  • Farm cottages;
  • Fencing and camping.

We also have a rich history of working with business and government to help them achieve their renewable energy targets. Our systems and solutions are suitable for use on:

  • Commercial and industrial properties;
  • Large agriculture and the public sector;
  • Independent power producers, to name a few.

These are only a few of the industries and sectors that have helped us to grow into one of the leading Solar Energy Companies in South Africa today.
