Tuesday, 01 April 2025: A campaign, including photovoltaic (SSEG) systems, including photovoltaic (PV) systems, including photovoltaic (PV) installation systems, including all owners in Eskom, requires all owners in Eskom, including Eskom.
The owners of these systems, which are not in the Eskom, are required to register these systems by local municipality by NSA.
- The typical size of most residential PV devices is up to 16 kVA. Since March 2023, Eskom has no cost or price of a smart meter (two directions) for households with up to 50KVA devices.
- Non-residential-scale generation (SSEG) systems usually involve larger scale devices for industrial use, more than 50 kV, a different payment structure.
- After registering, customers will become a HomeFlex tariff. SSEG and non-SSEG living clients will pay the same fixed charges. SSEG residential customers can also benefit from homeflex tariff loans for energy exports.
- In the world, the GRID security has become a critical focus for the safety of the grid, which pushes the Green Solar PV system on the grid.
Average household involves zero fees and saves R9000
Since March 2023, the Esskom, registration fee, installation and Solar Fotovoltaik (PV) devices, up to 50 KVA for the installation and smart meter, did not fill their households. In fact, these customers were released from the tariff conversion fees that cover the costs of connection costs and tariff conversion fees, usually costs such as quotes, physical relations and meter devices. These freedoms will remain in the place of households by March 2026, including PV systems, have not been installed yet.
In addition, the Eskom will continue to apply the previous year for non-residential sses for non-residential sses, which provides ongoing expenses.
These deposits can save the households with SSEG systems on April 1, 2026, the households assessed in 16KVA can save zero fees for most PV devices and save up to R9132 due to release of link fees. In addition to these deposits, households will continue to receive loans to export energy to the Escom network, homeflex tariff, which provides financial benefits by NSA.
Nersa Adjustment Compatibility
In accordance with NSA rules, it is required to register for enterprises and households (including solar PV systems), which are less than 100 kVA (including solar PV systems), power power. But having a full grid and no The Eskom network connected and not required to register, but must prove their systems independent operation from the supply of ESKOM.
As a responsible licensed electricity distributor, it ensures that the letters for Eskom, energy consumption or generation, the necessary codes, standards and instructions identified by NERSA.
These standards are important to ensure network security, protecting the field staff and protect the public.
Upon registration, households have paid R368 only on the month of Homeflex tariff loans for energy export. These charges help cover reserve services, export services and management costs. We repeat that non-SSEG and non-SSE customers will pay the same fixed charges.
Simple 3 steps SSEG registration process:
- Apply for SSEG registration: Send an e-mail (Email reserved) (eg (Email reserved)) With #applications in the subject line. An offer for two-way meters will be sent in response to more than 50 kV users.
- To install payment and graphics: After payment (up to 50KVA, residential clients with devices up to 50 kVA are released from payment), Eskom will install the smart meter and the client will become a homeflex tariff.
- Get payment information and deposit options: Eskom will provide approximate monthly bills and deferred savings options with the option to pay for goods over 12 months. Deposit for residential systems to 50KVA, if no deposit has previously been given no deposit, the deposit may vary from R3 to R4.
Security Considerations for Sun PV installations
Eskom encourages compliance with critical safety rules when installing Sun PV systems covering all customers:
- To ensure these equipment complies with South Africa standards (NRS 097-2). SAGS will remain in this place until you complete the rules of low voltage regulation for SSEGs.
- The Generator Setup (EGI) report, which has a registered engineer or technologist, reports to ensure the safe integration of the required system in NERSA instructions.
- To obtain the COC) COC (COC) required for the internal wires of the property.
New online client tool to check your deposits
Customers can use the new small power user (SPU) tool To see how the conversion of the homeflex tariff can lead to a significant financial savings.
Eskom remains committed to working with continuous support, management and business partners with customers and industry partners to ensure safe and efficient use of solar energy solutions in South Africa.
