The Problem

Never Go Dark

Every stage of load-shedding costs South African businesses trading hours, spoiled stock and idle staff. Alltech Empower designs solar PV with battery and UPS backup so critical equipment keeps running during outages — and the same panels cut your electricity bill every sunny day in between.

FAQ

Common Questions

How long does a commercial solar installation take?

Most business installations run from a few days to a few weeks depending on system size and roof complexity. After the energy audit we give you a firm timeline, and our team handles design, compliance and commissioning end to end.

Will solar keep my business running during load-shedding?

Yes — that is the core of our design. Solar charges batteries by day, and battery or UPS capacity carries your critical equipment through outages, so tills, servers, security and lights stay on when the grid goes dark.

How much can solar cut my electricity bill?

Optimised installations routinely cut electricity costs by around 40%, depending on your consumption profile and system size. We state projected savings and payback in the proposal, so the business case is clear before you commit.

Can I finance a solar system through you?

Yes. Our in-house finance division funds solar and backup power directly — no third-party lenders, no delays. Flexible instalments mean the system can start paying for itself from the savings while you pay it off.

Do you maintain the system after installation?

We do. Monitoring, maintenance and rapid support are part of the partnership — we watch generation and battery health continuously and act before small issues cost you savings or uptime.
