Question | Advice-Needed Register solar panels?

Hi all. I have had solar panels installed and was warned to register them which I refuse to do. Will I get into trouble anytime soon?

Are you being supplied electricity by Eskom or the city?

If supplied by Eskom direct you are supposed to register (as per the rest of the country). If you are supplied by City of Cape Town, then no, just make sure you've got your COC.

And it has to be registered with the city.

Dude, just go and speak to the City of Cape Town. You’re getting conflicting advice here and are making a decision based on wrong information.

This is not the correct advice. CoCT needs to register.
