The PV GreenCard

The PV GreenCard has been developed to promote safe and high-quality Solar PV installations. The PV GreenCard Programme focuses on education, skills development, and training to build installer capacity as well as improve standards development and compliance in line with international best practice.

The PV GreenCard is an as built report for the Solar PV system owner and a checklist for the installer which qualified installers provide to their clients on the completion of a project. The PV GreenCard contains details of the installation such as, what sort of PV modules and PV inverters were used, as well a checklist of all of the necessary installation steps that were completed.

The installer is able to use the PV GreenCard to declare compliance with relevant standards as well as safety guidelines for PV installation. This will provide investor confidence, commitment from participating industry players and empowerment of the Solar PV system owner.

The PV GreenCard is an industry led quality label that is inclusive in nature and becomes the key to ensure a high standard of quality for small-scale Solar PV installations.

It is recommended that a PV GreenCard should be issued with every small-scale Solar PV installation by suitable qualified installers.

JOIN THE INSTALLER DATABASE AND GET LISTED

All Solar PV installation companies are welcome to register on the database

Once you have registered your company, you will have the ability to register all qualifying installers who are registered with the Department of Labor (DoL) and have successfully completed the Solar PV Assessment. (More information on the Solar PV Assessment can be found here). It is important to note that only these installers would be able to submit a PV GreenCard.

SOME FACTS

CURRENT STATUS

It is estimated that, in recent years close to 60 000 Solar PV installations have been undertaken in the residential, commercial and industrial (RCI) market segments.

The unofficial installed capacity of Rooftop Solar PV installations amounts to more than 300MW. It is understood that only 38MW have been officially registered with the appropriate municipalities.

The PV GreenCard initiative will allow for a registry of installation and provide up to date data on installed capacity for better planning and investment decision making.
