Protecting Solar Investments In South Africa Amid Increasing Hailstorms
By Mohan Gupta
As South Africa experiences shifts in weather patterns, homeowners and businesses investing in solar power are being advised to focus on the durability of their systems. The country is seeing an increase in both the frequency and intensity of hailstorms, particularly in provinces such as Gauteng. While some areas are experiencing fewer hail days due to climate change, the storms that do occur are becoming more violent, producing larger and more destructive hailstones capable of damaging standard glass.
