If you’re spending between R1800 and R2800 a month on electricity, you’ll need a 5kW kit. And if you’re spending between R2900 and R4300 a month on electricity, you’ll need an 8kWh kit. You can work out your needs based on your monthly electricity spend on the product page of a kit you are interested it. Simply add your average monthly bill amount in the space provided on the top right of the kit page.
