Right before i tell u about what's in the market, I'll just teach you the basics of a solar system,

Basically a solar system converts the energy from the sun to electricity you can use at home and also utilizes batteries to store that energy so that you can use it later.
I will inform you about the 3 types of systems we commonly use in Zim. We have
1. Offgrid system
2. Hybrid system
3. Gridtie system
1. Offgrid system
This type of system is ideal emakhaya, where there's no zesa totally it consists of
-Charge controller
-Inverter
-Panels
-Battery
The panels here charge the battery n supplies inverter with power, then the inverter powers your appliances.
2. Hybrid
This system has
-solar panel
-hybrid inverter
-batteries
It works in a similar way to an offgrid system, but its smart, it charges using zesa and solar panels. When a power cut occurs, the consumer would not notice because it automatically switches over as backup. It is ideal for urban areas
3. Grid tied systems
These are similar to hybrid systems but they are more advanced in the sense that it feeds back power into the grid. @ZetdcOfficial made a provision for us as consumers that if you make excess power you can just feedback into the powergrid .....
... and there's a special meter called a netmeter that counts the KWh you feed into the grid and zesa rewards you as units that you can use should you need them (trust me at some point you will need them😅). There is a procedure to be followed and there are special inverters
...for this type of system. With all this said and done, what type of system do you want?😊
Any khwestshens?

Hie guys I have decided that today we talk about Solar panels, i will tell you what they are, types of solar panels, trusted brands, also the does and don'ts! (A thread) Image
First things first i want to emphasize that the size of your panel does NOT necessarily determine which appliances your system can power!!!!! Its not proper to ask if a 330w panel ingavusa ifridge bantu🙉 . Kuzwakele angithi?
Right we all know a solar panel is a device which converts sunlight into electricity (Direct current to be exact) I will not dwell on the structure but i will tell you that currently in the market we have 2 types
-Polycrystalline
-Monocrystalline

Since it’s #UnityDay today let me tell you guys about this one time in Junior Parliament. But this was in April, and we were attending the Children’s Independence Party in Harare. The theme was “Zimbabwe@35: Consolidating unity, peace and economic development.”

A THREAD👇🏽👇🏽
1. I was in Debate and Public Speaking so each province did a screening to select poets; public speakers, dancers etc to perform at the Children’s Party. I was selected to deliver a speech. Obviously ecstatic, sis was cramming that speech until she got to Harare.
2. Day b4 we had rehearsals. This was the final process that’ll help us know where in the program we would perform. I opened with this quote, “Pain is a woman watching her sons burn to death as others dance to the songs of Chimurenga.”George Mujajati book-The Sun Will Rose Again

Witchcraft: A thread, based on oral tradition and detailed research

1/ Witchcraft has always been regarded as an integral part of African tradition/s. That though could be due to peoples ignorance in failing to separate traditional rituals and rites from witchcraft, lets dive in
2/ Definition: Witchcraft is a manifestation of mystical forces that may be inherent in a person or acquired in various ways, (Mbiti, 1991). Witchcraft is only detected once its nature is fully revealed.

Note, jealousy, hatred, envy, and greed usually fuel negative evil forces
3/ Process :

Some are born witches, some acquire the skills while others are forced into it. It takes a Witch to make a Witch. Someone who is possessed has the potential to be one and usual the most dangerous of witches are those possessed by evil spirits, these know no bounds
