GoSolr, a leading provider of solar energy solutions in South Africa, goes beyond just harnessing the power of the sun.
With a focus on delivering exceptional benefits and innovative features, GoSolr aims to make solar power an accessible, affordable, and flexible solution for all.
Affordable, clean, and sustainable energy should be readily available to all. Unfortunately, for some, that hasn’t been possible due to the high installation costs of solar energy.
Unlike Absa Loadshedding / Solar Systems Solutions being offered as a loan, GoSolr’s innovative solution is offered as a subscription-based approach designed to overcome this financial obstacle.
They offer you an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of solar power without any upfront costs or risks.
In 2021, GoSolr finally achieved its mission to spread sunshine into homes across the country. They kicked off their solar installations in Cape Town and eventually broadened their reach to Johannesburg, achieving this milestone by March 2022.
As of now, they have also extended their services to other cities such as Durban, Garden Route, Qqeberha, Bloemfontein, and Nelspruit.
