Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is solar energy
Solar energy is the energy generated from the sun’s rays and can be captured and converted into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) panels.

2. How much does it cost to install a solar power system?
The cost of a solar power system varies based on factors such as location, system size, equipment, and installation costs. On average, a 5kW solar power system can cost anywhere from Ksh 190,000 to ksh 1,130,000.

3. How much electricity can a solar panel generate?
The amount of electricity a solar panel can generate depends on various factors, including the size of the panel, the efficiency of the panel, and the amount of sunlight it receives. On average, a single solar panel can generate approximately 100 to 500 watts of electricity.

4. How long does a solar panel last?
A solar panel typically has a lifespan of 25-30 years and can continue to produce electricity even after that, albeit at a lower efficiency rate.

5. Is solar power reliable?
Solar power can be a reliable source of energy, particularly when paired with a battery system and/or grid connection, which can provide backup power during periods of low sunlight.

6. Are solar panels compatible with my existing electrical system?
In most cases, yes. A professional solar installer can determine the compatibility of your existing electrical system and recommend any necessary upgrades.
