System sizes & prices
System size — written as kW — is the most misunderstood part of buying solar. A bigger system is not automatically better. The right size depends on what you actually run, when you run it, and whether you want backup during load-shedding or bill reduction through net metering. This category explains sizes in plain language and, honestly, why prices vary so much: panels, inverter, battery (if any), wiring, structure, labour and your roof all change the final figure. That is why we do not publish fixed prices here. Instead, each guide explains the cost drivers and shows you how to compare three dated, itemised vendor quotes on equal terms.
