    South African households and businesses are rapidly adopting private power in 2025

    Municipalities will never come right financially, in the short to medium term, because of this move to solar. The heavy users, who were subsidizing the light users, have moved to solar in astonishing numbers. This is one of the major reasons municipal books don't balance for the municipalities...

    I have 12000 btu inverter units... They sit around 1000 - 1100w cooling. Heating is a little higher around 1300w-1500w or so.

    Analysis of electricity cost savings with a small solar power system

    This sounds about correct... I don't even care to calculate the payback on my system, because how do you put a price on convenience? I run aircon ALL DAY to warm up parts of the house in winter and cool it in summer. If someone makes a cup of tea and fills the whole kettle, I don't care. We use...

    Air conditioning while running on home solar and batteries

    Greatest thing I did last year, was changing all the office and home aircons to inverter type. I've seen consumption as low as 600w on the 12000 BTU units.

    Former Supersonic customers receive debt collector demands on bills they've already paid

    That's exactly what I told their attorneys. They then said I should put it writing and send with POP, to which I reiterated their rightful passage to hell once more.

    Eskom in a spiral of doom

    Don't worry, I'm just an ordinary citizen (with said solar system) that doesn't opine on things they know NOTHING about. Our paths won't cross. :-)

    Eskom in a spiral of doom

    Ever heard the saying "Its better to remain quiet and appear stupid, than to speak and remove all doubt"? That's you right there... You clearly don't even have a solar system nor understand how they work. So I won't even bother to debate the stupidity of your response.

    Eskom in a spiral of doom

    NONSENSE... You don't need a R200k to reduce your electricity to near "off grid" ... And you can never be completely off grid too. 5kw Inverter - R20 000 5kw battery - R25 000 8x 550w panels - R16 000 Accessories + Installation - R15-R20k Total is R81 000... Add another 5kw battery you're...

    Pretoria chef and restaurant owner loses R600,000 after phone snatching

    THANK YOU!! If it's your time to die, it's your time. The BEST you can do like you said, is to protect yourself by not having access to banking on your everyday phone. You can even keep hidden in your car permanently on silent if you feel you must have banking access. These guys will take YOU...
