The 7-Step Solar Installation Process in Zimbabwe
What to expect when you choose Sona Solar Zimbabwe for professional solar system installation.
Before investing, evaluate your consumption. Check your monthly ZESA token usage to gauge your kilowatt-hour (kWh) needs. Identify peak appliances like geysers, air conditioners, and electric stoves.
Decide if you want an off-grid system (total independence) or a hybrid system (keeping ZESA as a backup).
Not every roof is automatically suited for solar. We check structural integrity and orientation. In the Southern Hemisphere (Zimbabwe), North-facing roofs receive the most sunlight. We also perform a shading analysis to ensure trees or neighboring buildings won't reduce efficiency.
Selecting high-quality equipment is vital for longevity. We supply:
- Solar Panels: Tier 1 Monocrystalline panels (Canadian Solar, JA Solar).
- Inverter: Robust inverters like Must, Sunsynk, or Deye.
- Batteries: Lithium Ion batteries for reliable night-time backup.
Once the system design is approved, physical installation begins. High-quality mounting frames are securely fixed to the roof to support Tier-1 solar panels from trusted brands such as Jinko Solar, JA Solar, Canadian Solar, and Longi. Panels are carefully aligned, wired, and connected to the inverter, with professional weatherproofing applied to protect your roof during Zimbabwe’s rainy season and ensure long-term durability.
The inverter—the heart of the solar system—is installed close to your main distribution board for safety and efficiency.
We work with industry-leading solar inverters such as Must, Deye, Sunsynk, Growatt, Livoltek, SRNE, and Hanchu,
paired with reliable lithium batteries from Dyness, Pylontech, Polaris, Leoch, SVolt, and Hanchu ESS to store excess energy.
Pro Tip: Choosing a hybrid inverter allows easy future expansion of your battery bank as your power needs grow.
Before flipping the switch, we perform comprehensive testing. This includes checking panel efficiency, inverter functionality, and battery charge/discharge cycles. We also verify the connection to your Distribution Board (DB) to ensure seamless changeover.
Your system is ready! We switch it on and monitor initial performance. You can expect an immediate reduction in grid electricity usage and seamless protection when load shedding hits.
