RED Engineering is a Cape Town-based solar and storage firm delivering energy certainty since 2010.
Founded in 2010, RED Engineering (Pty) Ltd. specialises in solar photovoltaic (PV) and battery energy storage systems (BESS) for commercial and light industrial clients. Our projects are guided by engineering rigour and practical experience—designed to be compliant, efficient, and future-ready.
With deep market insight and a hands-on approach, we don’t just install systems—we engineer lasting energy solutions. Every project is built to reduce operating costs, improve resilience, and empower clients to own their energy future.
Our leadership team brings decades of practical, technical, and strategic experience across solar PV, energy efficiency, and large-scale project delivery.
From Cape Town to Harare, we’ve successfully implemented numerous commercial and industrial systems since 2010.
Every system we design is based on real load profiles, site conditions, and financial goals — no cookie-cutter setups.
We stay involved beyond installation with SLAs covering performance monitoring, maintenance, and issue response.
We design, implement, and support solar and battery storage systems that are technically sound, financially viable, and tailored to real-world conditions.
We perform detailed technical audits, analyzing load profiles, equipment use, tariffs, and site viability to create an accurate baseline for system design and cost analysis.
Using advanced software and real data, we simulate system performance and run financial models like ROI and LCOE to help you make informed investment choices.
Our engineers design all electrical and mechanical systems in-house and source only top-tier equipment with strong warranties and proven performance.
We handle your SSEG application from start to finish, managing technical submissions, regulatory paperwork, and compliance to secure safe grid connection.
Qualified subcontractors install your system under our supervision, while we manage schedules, safety, workmanship, and commissioning tests for full compliance.
We provide tailored SLAs offering real-time monitoring, preventive maintenance, fault response, and yield optimization to ensure long-term system performance.
From wineries to schools, care homes to cold storage, our portfolio spans multiple industries and regions.
RED Engineering has implemented solar PV and BESS systems across South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Angola. Notable projects include:
450 kWp PV for Arbeidsvreugd Fruit Packers (Western Cape)
210 kWp PV + 774 kWh BESS for Rickety Bridge Winery (Franschhoek)
410 kWp PV for Finlar Fine Foods (Johannesburg)
53 kWp PV + 80 kWh BESS for Cape Town Society for the Blind
131 kWp PV + 774 kWh BESS hybrid solution with EMS & SCADA
Each project is backed by compliance documentation and long-term support agreements.
We form long-term partnerships built on technical excellence and transparency.
