Rooftop Solar Array Installation
Solar AC Ghana designs and installs commercial rooftop solar PV arrays across Ghana — mounting, stringing, inverters and live monitoring, sized for real yield and handed over in writing. Same-day service line.
A rooftop solar PV array is one of the few capital items on a commercial building that pays itself back — but only if it is sized to the load, engineered to the roof, and monitored so you can see it working. Solar AC Ghana designs and installs commercial rooftop arrays across Ghana, by EC-licensed technicians. Call +233 27 000 0866 — we survey the roof and give you the price from that survey before any work starts.
What a Commercial Rooftop Array Involves
A rooftop array is not “panels on a roof.” Each part is engineered:
Mounting & Structure
The mounting system is selected to your roof — pitched, flat membrane, or metal-deck — and engineered to wind load, with waterproofed, rated fixings. This is where cheap installs fail in the first rainy season; we detail and document it.
Stringing & Inverters
Panels are wired into strings matched to the inverter’s voltage window, with grid-tie, hybrid or off-grid inverters chosen to your goal — offset the bill, ride through dumsor, or both. Inverters to IEC 62109, panels to IEC 61215 / IEC 61730.
Monitoring & Yield
Live monitoring is commissioned with the array, so real-time and historical yield per string is visible — underperformance shows up immediately, not as a quiet shortfall on the bill months later.
Documented Handover
You receive the as-built drawings, the IEC-referenced commissioning record, the monitoring login, and the workmanship warranty terms — in writing, not promised verbally.
What a Rooftop Array Project Covers
| Phase | What we do |
|---|---|
| Survey | Measure roof, structure, orientation; read load + bills |
| Design | Panel layout, string design, inverter sizing to IEC |
| Mounting | Roof-type mounting, wind-load + waterproofed fixings |
| Stringing & inverter | Wire strings, terminate inverter, grid-tie/hybrid/off-grid |
| Commission | Test under load, bring monitoring online |
| Handover | As-built docs, commissioning record, monitoring login, warranty |
How We Engineer a Rooftop Array
- Survey the roof and the load — sized to real usage, not a brochure number.
- Engineer the array and mounting — layout, stringing, mounting to IEC, price confirmed first.
- Install, string and commission — tested under load, monitoring online.
- Hand over in writing — as-built docs, commissioning record, warranty terms.
What It Costs — Honestly
No honest solar firm quotes a rooftop array before surveying the roof — the price depends on usable area, roof type, the load you are offsetting, and the inverter and mounting your building actually needs. We give you the price from the survey before any work starts, with the array sized to the load — not oversold to inflate the bill. Be wary of a flat per-kilowatt price quoted without anyone seeing your roof.
Commercial Tier — Built to Standard
This is our institutional and commercial discipline: corporate facilities, financial institutions, data centres, hospitality and high-end residences. Every commercial array is engineered to IEC 61215 / IEC 61730 (panels) and IEC 62109 (inverters), installed under the EC Solar PV licence regime (L.I. 2449 and the Energy Commission Solar PV licence under Act 832), commissioned with live monitoring, and backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty and O&M — see Decade Workmanship Warranty & O&M.
Same-Day Service Line
A commissioned array also gets a fault response. If monitoring flags a string drop, an inverter fault, or a yield shortfall, our same-day service line responds across Greater Accra — call +233 27 000 0866. Diaspora owners and estate managers: we attend, diagnose, and report on your property.
Areas We Serve

Frequently Asked Questions
How big a rooftop array do we need? Sized from your usable roof area, load profile and bills — not a round kilowatt off a brochure. We survey first and give you the price from that survey before any work starts.
What inverters and panels, to what standard? Panels to IEC 61215 / IEC 61730, inverters to IEC 62109 — grid-tie, hybrid or off-grid to your goal. Spec handed over in writing.
How do we know it is performing? Live monitoring per string, real-time and historical — underperformance shows up immediately, not as a quiet shortfall on the bill.
Will the mounting leak through the roof? Not when engineered. Mounting selected to your roof type, waterproofing and wind-load fixings detailed and documented — call +233 27 000 0866.
