Homes
Cut your bill and add backup.
Systems we engineer
Turn unused roof space into power.
Rooftop solar for homes, businesses and industrial sites, designed around your roof type, your load and your electricity supply.

Overview
The roof you already have, working harder.
A rooftop solar PV system uses space that earns nothing today. It generates where the power is used, so less is drawn from the grid during the day and your running costs fall.
Roofs differ, and the mounting must suit the roof. We design for Klip-Lok, IBR, tiled and other roof types. Use the roof-type switch in the diagram to see how each profile is mounted.
What we design for
Built around the site, not a catalogue
- Roof type, condition, orientation, shading and available area
- The building's electrical supply and the loads you want to power
- Inverter and protection suited to the site, including battery-ready designs
- Mounting that suits the roof profile: standing-seam clamps for Klip-Lok, ribbed-sheeting brackets for IBR, tile hooks for tiled roofs
- How the system will be monitored and maintained
How it works
From survey to commissioning.
Assess the roof
We look at the roof, the structure, shading and the electrical supply.
Design
Array layout, inverter, protection and optional battery.
Install and commission
Solarpro installs, tests and commissions the system.
Monitor and maintain
Our operation and maintenance team keeps it generating.
In the field
Real systems, real sites.
See installations by the Solarpro team across Botswana.
Who it suits
Good for
Shops and offices
Daytime load matches daytime solar.
Warehouses and factories
Large roofs, large loads.
Schools and clinics
Stable, predictable power.
Questions
Good questions, straight answers.
Which roofs can take solar?
Klip-Lok, IBR, tiled and other roof types. Suitability depends on the condition and structure of the roof, which we confirm at a site assessment.
Do I need a battery?
Not always. A grid-tied system without a battery reduces what you buy from the grid but switches off when the grid fails. A battery adds backup and evening use. See battery storage.
What is Botswana's Rooftop Solar Programme?
The Rooftop Solar Programme (RTS) allows citizens and businesses to generate their own electricity. Read our guide to the RTS and check the current programme terms before you apply.
How do I pay?
Upfront, or with FlexPay.
