System sizing and diagnostics guidance calibrated for Zimbabwe, grounded in local climate and market data.

- System sizing in minutes (panels, inverter, battery)
- Diagnostics relaunch in progress
What SolMate Offers
The public tool surface is temporarily limited to sizing and diagnostics while the rest of the menu stays hidden.
Optimized for Zimbabwe
Every calculation accounts for local conditions: the climate, the tariff structure, and what equipment is actually available on the ground.
22 Locations
Peak Sun Hours (PSH), seasonal profiles, and climate data for towns across Zimbabwe, from Harare to Victoria Falls.
Climate Adjustments
Temperature derating, dust soiling, and altitude corrections applied per location so sizing reflects real-world output.
Local Market Data
Tariff bands and equipment pricing based on what is actually available from local suppliers.
Beta
A Work in Progress
SolMate is an initiative launched in 2026 to help empower consumers and address common challenges with solar in Zimbabwe. This is a beta. The tools will continue to be refined and extended as new market data comes in, as equipment advances and becomes more widely available, and as we engage with the community. If something feels off or could be better, that feedback is welcome.
