Solar Structures Africa (SSA) is taking the solar energy landscape by storm with its expertly crafted, lightweight steel mounting structures designed for solar panel installations.

Established in 2008, SSA has become a trusted name in the industry, offering durable and cost-effective solutions to meet the growing demand for sustainable energy.

One of SSA’s standout offerings is its ground mount solar structures. These structures, engineered to perfection using FRAMECAD software and machines, ensure accurate and efficient designs and manufacturing that meet industry standards. They are particularly ideal for solar farms, with a manufacturing capacity that can support up to 2 MW every 10 working days. The ground mounts are designed to prevent soil and steel contamination through the use of cast concrete plinths, and they comply with SANS standards, which guarantee durability and safety.

SSA specialises in Ground mount solar structures, A-frames for flat roofs or slabs and P2000 Unistruts 1mm made from AZ150 G550ys or Z275 G550ys material, providing competitively priced, Engineer approved solar structures. The structures are tested for up to 144 km winds and all upliftment tests are calculated by Engineers, making our structures durable and safe to use. Talk about the best of both worlds!

Solar Structures Africa is the perfect partner for those looking to expand their solar farms.

For clients requiring solar panels on flat surfaces, SSA offers A-frame structures, which are lightweight and easy to assemble, making them ideal for flat roofs or slab installations. These frames are designed for efficiency and simplicity, ensuring that solar panel alignment and stability are maintained where you do not have an angle to place your panels on..

What sets SSA apart is its commitment to quality and timely delivery. If you need a large-scale installation, SSA provides the engineering expertise and reliable mounting systems to suit any requirement. By offering structures in pre-punched kits or with full installation services of the structures, SSA makes it easy for clients to incorporate sustainable energy solutions into their operations. Once you call and place your order, you will receive your structure within ten working days (terms and conditions apply)!

In addition to solar panel structures, SSA also designs and manufactures lightweight steel buildings and roofs, serving a variety of sectors including industrial, commercial, residential, and agricultural markets. These structures are made from AZ150 G550ys or Z275 G550ys, which offers superior corrosion resistance, strength, and heat reflection, ensuring that they stand the test of time.

From two panel portrait tables (standard table array), to East-West ground mounts to custom designs, SSA continues to push the boundaries of innovation, helping South Africa and other regions transition to greener, more sustainable energy solutions.
