South African Photovoltaic Industry Association (SAPVIA) is a not-for-profit industry association that was formed to promote, develop, and grow the solar Photovoltaic (“PV”) sector as part of the wider renewable energy industry in South Africa.

We achieve the mission by proactively working with government and other industry stakeholders to ensure that our members are best placed to capitalise on opportunities in the solar PV sector and benefit from a sustainable PV and wider renewable energy market.

As a SAPVIA member, you will gain access to member services designed to enhance your organisation and the sector. These services include but are not limited to, access to research and market intelligence, networking opportunities with actors along the solar PV-value chain, company profiling, influence by joining and making contribution to focused working groups, discounts to industry events and conferences, and direct introductions with relevant stakeholders.

We currently offer 3 types of membership:

• Sponsor Membership: with two subcategories, Sponsors are companies and organisations with commercial or developmental interest in the production of solar PV electrical energy in South Africa and are financial contributors of the Association. Admission to this category of membership is determined by an applicant’s willingness and ability to financially contribute to the Association.
• Full/Ordinary Membership: are companies and organisations with commercial or developmental interest in the production of solar PV electrical energy in South Africa who are unwilling or unable to financially contribute to the Association in the manner required of Sponsors; but meet every other criterion of eligibility for membership as a Sponsor.
• Associate Membership: is open to companies or institutions that wish to receive notices and newsletters from the Association in terms of any South African legislation which provides for the protection of personal information; and need not have any commercial or developmental interests in the independent production of Solar PV electrical energy in South Africa.
