Shed the load on your electricity bill

What is a Sunday without the Grand Prix, or a biltong platter without the rugby game blaring from the braai room TV? What if you couldn’t see that legendary Bafana Bafana goal live on SuperSport? It sounds pretty bleak, right? It also sounds a little familiar. Two very South African words might pop into your mind. Eskom and load shedding. But don’t let your blood pressure get the better of you just yet… SunHire will lighten up your day with a ground-breaking concept that will literally change the game!

Day walkers

With the increased strain on electricity supply in South Africa, load shedding is bound to make a comeback year after year. Even when Andre de Ruyter publicly announces that load shedding is something of the past, we all know how that story ends… Why does this bother us so much? It’s basic biology! With poor eyesight at night, humans are creatures of the day. The thought of being left in the dark is daunting, no matter how well in advance your neighbourhood watch group sends you the latest load shedding update.

Candlelight Dinners…

While some take advantage of the power outages, like the local pizzeria or your teenager “not being able to study for the final exams by candlelight”, many businesses suffer from the loss of income. With the government enforcing social restrictions for the past year and a half due to the pandemic, every minute of being open is essential to many business’ survival. And let’s not start on what it costs in fuel to run a generator!

South Africans have been opting for a more sustainable source of electricity lately. Because let’s face it, toddler-moms, how will you ever finish cooking that dinner on the gas stove without your trusty digital friend, Cocomelon? And although a romantic thought, neither your family’s, nor your bank account’s health will survive the regular take outs that Eskom’s lack of electricity supply forces upon us.

‘Sun’ of a gun!

Solar energy is no longer a novelty only for environmentalists, or conspiracy theorists wanting to get off the grid. At least half of South Africa’s population has looked into the affordability of a solar energy system to power up their household or place of business. The constraint however, is exactly that; affordability. Although more cost-effective in the long run, the initial equipment costs and installation fees of a solar system are too high for an average household or even small business owner to invest in. The result is that we continue to complain about the ever increasing electricity bill. And we comment with angry emoji’s every time Eskom surprises us with yet another load shedding announcement.
