Explore questions we usually get about our services
How does solar energy work?
Solar energy systems use panels to capture sunlight and convert it into electricity. This power can be used immediately, stored in batteries, or used to reduce reliance on the national grid.
Can solar systems work during cloudy days or at night?
Yes. Solar panels still generate power on cloudy days, though at reduced efficiency. For night use, systems can be paired with battery storage or integrated with grid supply for continuous power.
How much can I save with solar energy?
Savings vary depending on system size and energy usage, but most customers experience significant reductions in electricity bills over time, making solar a cost-effective long-term investment.
Is solar suitable for homes and businesses in Botswana?
Absolutely. Botswana’s high sunlight levels make it an ideal environment for solar energy, allowing systems to perform efficiently throughout the year.

What is a solar borehole system?
A solar borehole system uses solar energy to power water pumps, providing a reliable and sustainable water supply for agriculture, homes, and rural communities.
How long do solar systems last?
