One of the key areas within SETS is the design and installation of small to medium-scale solar photovoltaic projects. SETS has the capacity to manage and deliver high quality solar photovoltaic projects from inception, throughout design, development and construction stages.
These include the installation of grid-tied, hybrid and off-grid rooftop and ground-mounted photovoltaic systems for domestic, commercial and industrial sites.
Our professional team is highly experienced in science and engineering. Combined with years of experience in the energy field, SETS can respond to your specific project requirements.
SETS ensures that all their installations conform to the existing South African NRS and SANS standards, supported by our accredited Energy Training Centre.
SETS offers a full-spectrum approach to solar energy projects, combining technical expertise with project execution and skills development.
We specialize in:
System Design & Engineering
Procurement Support
Project Management
Sector Skills Training
Our engineering team delivers customized solar PV system designs tailored to your site and energy needs.
Evaluate solar potential, location-specific constraints, and infrastructure readiness.
Optimize panel positioning and reduce energy loss due to shadows.
Predict system performance using advanced modeling tools.
Integrate batteries with load-balancing and capacity planning strategies.
Full design including PV modules, inverter configurations, cable sizing, and safety considerations.
All designs meet or exceed IEC and IEEE standards.
Ground mounting, wind load analysis, structural stability, and lightning protection systems are all incorporated.
We assist with defining technical specifications and quality standards for all components. By liaising with reliable suppliers, we ensure timely and cost-effective procurement, managing the supply chain and mitigating disruptions in solar and DC component delivery.
SETS works alongside project managers to ensure the timely supply of solar and DC components. We align with engineering teams to meet regulatory standards, and we help approve final designs, ensuring seamless integration with local and global codes.
