References – What our Clients think about us

  • Treetop solar have given impeccable service with my original installation 18 months ago and again now when I increased my battery capacity. I was kept updated with installation times and when the equipment arrived. All the approvals are dealt with efficiently and the installation is incredibly neat. The system has worked flawlessly since installation.

  • We have had our backup power system for a little over a month now with panels being installed soon. So far we are extremely happy with their service. Super neat, clean job on the installation and everything works as expected, but the most important for us is the comms. Their customer service has been 101% which is so important with something like your power supplier.

  • We are thrilled to have had solar installed. Stefan and the rest of the Treetops team did a great job. Their communication was great and they kept us in the loop with any changes as they went along. Service and their staff were great! We would recommend them!

  • The team at Treetops have literally saved my job. Working from home with all the dreadful loadshedding taking place, I was at my wits end figuring workarounds. Stefan and his team were brilliant from the moment they did the site inspection, the installation, assisting with the registration and commissioning, until they flipped the 'ON' switch. The brief I gave them was: "I don't want to notice' when the power goes off. I had the inverter, batteries and solar panels installed in November last year and, since then, I no longer even thinking about power outages. AND I've spent next to nothing on electricity bills. Anyone looking a professional loadshedding solution should really contact Stephan and the team at Treetops.

  • Home installation of inverter, battery and solar system. The installation started on time, was completed ahead of schedule, and just works as specced. Furthermore, it was just refreshing to have proactive communications from the Treetops team. I cannot overstate how much of a difference this made to my peace of mind.

  • Treetops installed our Tesla Powerwall 2 system in Nov 2020. The level of work was of the highest quality and commendable. From the start the experience was first class. To date the system operates flawless and we do not know about load shedding. What a pleasure, not a moment of regret using this company and having such a professional installation.

  • Treetops installed a Sunsynk inverter, Freedom Won battery and solar panels at our home. Their service was professional and it is evident from the neat installation that they take pride in their work. The support is brilliant and the staff is knowledgeable in the field. The owner, Martin Pollack, knows solar power inside out and can propose the best system according to your specific needs. The system was commisioned by Stefan and again it was a breeze in setting it all up because of his extensive knowledge of the Sunsynk inverter. Thank you gents - job well done.

  • Over the last few years it became blatantly clear that ESKOM was unable to supply a steady flow of electricity to the private & business sectors of South Africa. Towards the end of 2021 I started sourcing companies that installed PV panels, Inverters, & batteries in households, in order to provide a back up supply of electricity. Some companies were totally arrogant & wanted a huge deposit before negotiations would even begin & other companies were run from garages in residential areas with deposits being paid to private accounts. I finally decided to contract Tree Tops as they were a “ bona fide “ company with a visible premises & a very professional approach to their business. A meeting was organized at my home, & Mr Stefan Ortmann ( who represented the company) arrived on time & was able to guide me through the whole process of deciding just how elaborate or how small a PV system I needed. The panels on the roof & wiring to the inverter/ battery were professionally installed, & the certified electrical team who connected everything up to the Distribution Box in the house were equally competent. [ They even rectified an existing fault in the wiring before they could complete their work on the Distribution Box ] Tree Tops are always available after installation of their product as minor adjustments may be needed to the Inverter depending on the perilous state of ESKOM. I would not hesitate recommending Tree Tops Solar to anyone considering supplementing their “ energy supply “ or going totally “ off grid “ Sincerely Mr G R Liggett ( SimonsTown)

Once we receive your feedback, we will adjust the designs until you are 100% satisfied that this is the perfect solution for you.

3. Detailed Planning & Project Acceptance

Once you have decided which Solar System is the right one for you, we will produce detailed 3D drawings of how your Solar System is going to be installed and integrated in your Home or Business. This also allows us to produce a detailed production forecast of how the system will perform on your specific address and the design you have chosen.

After approval of the final Design of your PV or Backup System, we will issue the final quotation for your project and are moving ahead with the Installation.

4. Installation & Registration with the Municipality

Our roof installation and electrical teams are fully qualified and specifically trained for the installation and commissioning of your Photovoltaic Equipment.

All of the components we are proposing to you are fully compliant with your Municipality and of the highest quality available in South Africa. This ensures that the application and registration process of your Solar System will be smooth and successful.

f.a.q. – Frequently Asked QUestions

How much does a Solar System in Cape Town cost?

Depending on how much Electricity you are using and at what time of the day you are using most of it, most people will require between 1kWp and 6kWp of Solar Panels.

When using only Solar Panels without Batteries, costs start at ZAR 29,000.00 incl. VAT for 1kWp of Solar Panels, fully installed and registered.

According to how much Electricity you are using at night, most people will be able to sustain their Electricity need for 1 day with a Lithium Battery of 5kWh to 20kWh.

When adding Batteries to your Solar Panels, costs start at ZAR 59,000.00 incl. VAT for 1kWp of Solar Panels and 2.5kWh of Lithium Batteries, fully installed and registered.

How much does it cost to install Solar panels in Cape Town?

The installation of Solar Panels in Cape Town is depending on the type of roof you have. Roof tiles are generally the most expensive structures to mount Solar Panels to, while metal roofs have proven to be the fastest and cheapest.

The number of Solar Panels is directly correlating to your Electricity Usage. Most people will be able to cover their daily electricity requirement with 1kWp to 6kWp of Solar Panels.

To install 1kWp of Solar Panels in Cape Town will cost approximately ZAR 29,000.00 incl. VAT, fully installed and registered.

Are Lithium Batteries cheaper than Lead-Acid Batteries?

Yes, Lithium Batteries are cheaper than Lead-Acid Batteries. 

Lithium Batteries are significantly more efficient than lead-acid batteries. Lead-acid looses over between 30% and 50% of the electricity you are charging into it, while Lithium looses only around 5%. This means that all of your other parts of your Solar System have to be twice the size to have the same output, as if you had installed a Lithium Battery.

Additionally, Lead-Acid Batteries can only be discharged by 30%, while Lithium can be discharged by over 80%. This means that you need to buy a lot more Lead-Acid Batteries to store and use the same Electricity.

Do you offer Solar System FInance / PV Renting in Cape Town?

Treetops offers Solar System Finance (also PV Renting) in Cape Town. 

For now our offering is limited to commercial, industrial and agricultural clients.

However, we are actively pursuing possibilities to offer an affordable financing option for Homes and Houses, to enable everyone to benefit from Solar Power in Cape Town.

How much Solar Power do I need in Cape Town?

That depends on how much Electricity you are using every month. 1kWp of Solar Power in Cape Town produces between 1,400kWh and 1,700kWh per annum, depending on roof angle, technology and skill level of your Turnkey Integrator.

Most households will cover their annual Electricity needs with a 1kWp to 6kWp of Solar Power.

How much does Solar Power in Cape Town cost?

Solar Power in Cape Town is not expensive. 1kWp of Solar Power, without using Batteries, can be installed and registered for as little as R29,000.00 incl. VAT with Treetops.

If you would like to add Lithium Batteries to your Solar Power System, you can install and register a 1kWp Solar System with a 2.5kWh Battery for as little as R59,000.00 incl. VAT.
