Dumelang solar calculator

Your solar journey, connected.

Dumelang turns your appliances and your day into a first solar estimate, and shows when a professional site assessment makes sense. You get an initial estimate before you need to register.

How it works

Seven steps to your estimate.

  1. Your goal

    Reduce costs, back up outages, use less grid power, go off-grid, power a business, or power a pump or cold room.

  2. Your property

    Home or business, location, grid availability and phase, any existing solar, and roof or ground preference.

  3. Appliances and equipment

    Search or pick from a visual list, set quantities, and add your own equipment.

  4. Your usage

    Operating hours, day and night use, what must stay on, and how long backup should last.

  5. System preferences

    Grid-tied, hybrid or off-grid, with or without a battery, and room to expand.

  6. Your estimate

    An indicative inverter, solar and battery size, what it can support, key assumptions and how confident the result is.

  7. Next steps

    Save your estimate, request a detailed quotation, book a site assessment, or explore FlexPay.

Why it is accurate

It does not just add up watts.

Three different numbers decide what a system must do. Dumelang considers each on its own.

  • Peak running load. What the system must deliver when appliances run together.
  • Starting surge. Motors, pumps and compressors draw far more for a moment when they start, and the inverter must cope.
  • Daily energy. How much energy you use across the day and night decides the size of the solar array and the battery.

Honest results

Every estimate says how sure it is.

An automated estimate is never a final engineering design. Final designs are reviewed by appropriately qualified technical personnel and must comply with applicable standards.

Site assessment

Turn an estimate into a design.

A site assessment is a professional technical service, not a hurdle. It gives you the detail an estimate cannot.

  • Professional energy assessment
  • Technical site evaluation
  • Detailed technical design
  • Energy assessment report
  • Commercial quotation

Questions

Good questions, straight answers.

Do I have to register to use Dumelang?

No. You receive an initial estimate before registering. We email you when you want to save your results, request a detailed quotation or book an assessment.

Is the estimate a final design?

No. It is an indicative configuration with stated assumptions and a confidence level. Final designs are reviewed by qualified technical personnel and must comply with applicable standards.

Can I use it for a borehole pump or a cold room?

Yes. Choose that as your goal. The calculator accounts for starting surge, and we will usually recommend a pump and starting-load assessment or a commercial energy audit.

Can I use it for a business?

Yes. Choose a business or commercial operation. Larger and more complex sites usually need a site assessment.
