Solar panel cleaning... it all started with a problem.

Our journey with energy efficiency and preparedness started many years ago when owner Johan van der Watt implemented cost-saving measures in the cut-throat retail environment he worked in at the time.

 

He not only understood the necessity of efficiency and sustainability but also kept a keen eye on South Africa's unfolding energy crisis and became one of the very first local retailers in Worcester to adopt full-service backup power during load shedding more than a decade ago.

​

A solar-specific problem and idea

 

The idea for Solar Clean Cape was then born when he noticed a decrease in output from his own solar equipment and started researching solar cleaning industries across the globe.

​

He spotted a gap in the South African market, did thorough research into the best available equipment and international best practice, and established Solar Clean Cape.

​

Today the business is equipped with accredited training on the basic principles of solar technology and maintenance, a professional solar-specific cleaning system imported from Germany, and an agile setup that allows the team to travel across the Western Cape and to start and finish a job within hours.

​

A small and passionate team

Solar Clean Cape is owner operated and you'll always find Johan and team working side by side.
