1 Month unaspend Ksh 4,000 On Electricity: 12 Months inakuwa Ksh 48,000
3 Years inakuwa Ksh 48,000 X 3 = Ksh144,000
You can plan for a 48 Volt System 10kVA and only install the capacity that your budget allows and add panels and batteries as time goes until you achieve the maximum capacity. Every 4 months instead of parting with Ksh 16,000 unaongeza Panel. Batteries are the biggest huddle but with time the cost per kW is projected to come down.
This setup is only 50k.
Heating and Battery doesn’t sound right, Not even in Tesla cars, it doesn’t seem to fit in well, with car owners worrying shit loads.
However in other fronts, we’ve matured enough to use the sun to heat water and store it hot, we’re lucky we live at the equator where we get the shine all year round.

Elders solar ni expensive sana na haina value for money.
Badala ya kutumia 700k kuweka solar, wekeza io pesa, then lipa stima bei enye kenya power watakuuzia.
Solar energy inamake sense only ile wakati inatumika immediately bila kuwa stored kwa battery.
Solar energy ni expensive sana kwa mtu anajua hesabu za pesa.
Solr powered Borehole is a good example for daytime use with no charge storage.
In the coming years batteries will be replaced with SUPER CAPACITORS.
A capacitor the size of a 20 Liter Mtungi will store enough power for a 4 bedroomed household.
kwa borehole iko perfect na kwa factories na kwa kuuzia national grid.
Hii ni ya lighting tu 12v
Solar equipment lose their efficiency over time Hence will need an overhaul and replacement at one time.
Questions is: how long do they last?
Mdau, heri hio expense nikijua niko set for the next 10 years (deep cycle gel batteries) to 25 years (solar panel) kuliko stima ya KPLC imepotea, mara transformer imeibiwa, sijui mvua ilinyesha vigingi vikaanguka, halafu tena national blackout…hekaya kibao hazisaidii. Its all about convenience.
