The ongoing electricity crisis in the country has become a blessing in disguise for Bulawayo shops trading in renewable energy gadgets such as solar panels.

The rolling blackouts have resulted in businesses and households going for up to 18 hours a day without electricity.

A sales representative at Electrical Sales in Bulawayo Central Business District told ZimLive that they have registered an increase in sales in the past few weeks. Said the salesperson:

> We have witnessed an increase in sales of solar panels, inverters, and batteries in the past few weeks.

> Our largest market for solar used to be businesses. Now we are noticing a shift as clients enquire about household use.

> In a day, we have about 30 inquiries or so. Clients want to understand how it works and the costs; then they come back when they get the money.

A sales representative at Halsted Builders Express who preferred anonymity told ZimLive that demand for solar power systems was becoming higher. He said:

> During the festive season, we always record high sales of solar panels, especially from our clients in rural areas.

> This time around, we have seen many clients purchasing solar power systems due to load shedding.

A survey conducted by ZimLive in Bulawayo CBD established that a 1kilovolt (kva) solar system ranged from US$1 000 to US$1 200. This powers 4 lights, a television, WIFI, and a decoder. | ZimLive
