Applications for solar PV installations have registered another record on the back of persistent load-shedding, the City of Cape Town said on Monday.
The first four months of 2023 saw 2,333 new applications — about 21% of all applications since the city began promoting its small-scale embedded generation programme.
“February may have shattered records for solar PV installation applications, but March and April have already surpassed this,” the city said on Monday.
“These figures show an energised market response to Cape Town’s incentives for businesses and residents with solar PV generation capacity.”
