As one of the premier solar companies in Zimbabwe, Sona Solar Zimbabwe understands that choosing the right solar system size is a crucial first step toward achieving true energy independence. Selecting the ideal system capacity not only ensures your home or business has reliable power, but it also maximizes efficiency, reduces costs, and prevents overloading your setup.
In this comprehensive comparison, we examine the most common solar system sizes—from compact 1kW and 1.5kW setups for small households to larger 3kVA, 5kVA, and 6.2kVA systems designed for bigger homes or businesses. We’ll explore what each capacity can power, the number of appliances it can support, battery and inverter compatibility, and key factors to consider when deciding on the perfect system for your energy needs in Zimbabwe. By the end of this guide, you’ll have all the insights needed to make an informed, confident choice for your solar investment.
Step 1: Understand Your Energy Needs
Before choosing a system, you must know what you need to power. The average Zimbabwean household with a fridge and basic gadgets uses less than 10 units (kWh) per day. To get a clear picture:
- List Your Appliances: Write down every device you want to run on solar, especially during power cuts.
- Note Their Wattage: Check the power rating (in Watts) of each appliance.
- Estimate Daily Usage: How many hours per day does each appliance run?
- Identify Critical Loads: Decide what is essential (e.g., lights, fridge) versus what is a luxury (e.g., air conditioner).
