Following a successful year for solar panel installations on South African homes in 2023, the blending of technology with solar energy is changing how we view home efficiency and self-reliance. This is the word from Versofy Solar co-founder and CEO Ross Mains-Sheard, who says: “There’s an incredible opportunity to combine technology with daily home use to create homes that are smarter, more efficient, and more cost-effective.
As smart home gadgets and apps become more common, we’re seeing new, exciting developments that are tailored to improve our daily lives and help households save money.” He points out that a necessary shift is taking place both globally, as well as here in South Africa, where the focus on using technology, particularly the Internet of Things (IoT), to optimise home energy use is being taken more seriously than ever before. “Consider the traditional South African home, where energy use can often be inefficient. There is a real opportunity to transform this with smart technology to maximise the use of solar energy and reduce reliance on the gri
