Solar for Businesses, Farms & Homes

Solar and battery systems designed from your own electricity data

Our engineers assess how you use power, then design, install and look after your system.

Grid outages and rising tariffs hit every business, farm and home differently. Orilla Solar’s engineers assess how you use power, from your electricity bills, data logging or both, before they design anything.

The same team then installs your system, handles the approvals and looks after it for the long run. We work with businesses, farms and homes across Gauteng and the surrounding provinces.
