Solar installation in Accra, sized to your real load — not a generic package sold by postcode.
Accra's mix of gated homes, hotels, guesthouses and offices all lose power to dumsor differently — a Spintex guesthouse's backup needs look nothing like an East Legon home's. Solar installation in Accra only works properly when AerixSys assesses your actual load before recommending anything.
Solar installation sized differently by what you're actually backing up
East Legon, Trasacco & Cantonments homes
Larger homes with higher continuous load — AC units, multiple fridges, home offices — typically need larger battery banks and hybrid inverters sized for whole-home backup, not just essentials.
Spintex & Airport City hospitality
Guesthouses and small hotels along this corridor need backup that covers guest-facing systems — WiFi, lighting, refrigeration — reliably enough that a power cut never becomes a guest complaint.
Dansoman, Madina & Adenta homes
Budget-focused backup covering routers, lights and a fridge is the most common request here — sized to avoid paying for capacity that's never actually used.
Dumsor doesn't hit every Accra neighbourhood the same way
Grid reliability varies block to block across Accra depending on the ECG substation and feeder line serving your specific area — which is part of why a genuine load assessment matters more than picking a system off a generic price list. A system sized for a Kumasi household's dumsor pattern may be wrong for an Accra one with a different outage frequency, even at the same load.
Being based in Accra also means faster free assessments and faster follow-up if your system ever needs a battery or inverter check — a genuine practical advantage for the city we're actually headquartered in.
What the free assessment actually covers
- ✓ Your actual appliance list, not a generic package
- ✓ Roof or mounting space assessment
- ✓ Battery chemistry recommendation (lithium vs gel)
- ✓ Integration with any existing CCTV or network gear
- ✓ A written quote, not a verbal estimate
What the roof and mounting assessment actually covers
Accra's roof types vary block to block — flat concrete roofs common in newer East Legon and Trasacco builds mount differently to the pitched aluminium roofing common in older Dansoman and Achimota housing. Mounting hardware, angle brackets and waterproofing at the penetration points all need to match the actual roof, not a generic assumption.
Shading is checked at different times of day, not just once — a roof that looks clear at midday can have a tree or a neighbouring building's shadow cutting output significantly in the morning or late afternoon, which matters more than most people expect for total system output over a full day.
What the assessment covers
- ✓ Roof type and mounting hardware match
- ✓ Shading checked at multiple times of day
- ✓ Structural capacity for panel weight and wind load
- ✓ Cable routing from roof to inverter/battery location
- ✓ Waterproofing at every roof penetration point
Why battery sizing matters more than panel count
Panels charge, batteries carry you through
More panels only help during daylight — what actually keeps your lights on during an evening outage is battery capacity, sized to your real load and how many hours you need covered, not just how many panels look impressive on a quote.
Lithium vs gel is a real cost/lifespan trade-off
Lithium (LiFePO4) batteries cost more upfront but last significantly longer and handle deeper discharge cycles — gel batteries are cheaper initially but typically need replacing sooner. We quote both honestly rather than defaulting to whichever has a better margin.
Oversizing wastes money just as much as undersizing fails you
A battery bank sized for capacity you'll never use is money that could have gone toward a better inverter or genuinely useful backup hours — the free load assessment exists specifically to avoid both failure modes.
Solar Installation Accra FAQ
As general Ghana market orientation, small backup setups often start around GHS 15,000–25,000, with larger whole-building systems running GHS 60,000–95,000 or more depending on battery capacity. Accra pricing follows the same load-based model as elsewhere — your actual number comes from the free assessment, not this range.
Generally yes, since our team and stock are based here — follow-up support and battery/inverter checks typically don't involve the travel time that other regions may require.
Most East Legon homes are grid-tied with battery backup, since the grid connection itself is usually reliable enough day-to-day — the battery exists specifically to cover dumsor gaps, not to replace the grid entirely. Fully off-grid is more common for sites with genuinely unreliable or absent grid access.
Yes — we size systems for guest-facing continuity specifically, which usually means prioritising WiFi, lighting and refrigeration circuits so guests never notice an outage, rather than backing up the entire building's load.
Yes — this is a common combined request, since a security system that goes dark during the exact outage when it matters most defeats the purpose. We size solar backup to cover your CCTV load specifically when requested.
