For anyone thinking of going solar, the first question that comes to mind is how much does it cost to install solar panels in Kenya?

How Much Does It Cost to Install Solar Power in Kenya?
Installing solar in Kenya can cost from Ksh 50,000 to Ksh 300,000 for a home solar system for homes and offices depending on the capacity you want to install in your home or office space.
The cost for building with higher power consumption say above 20kVA which we can refer to as commercial or industrial systems can cost from Ksh 500,000 and above.
The initial cost is nothing compared to the value you are going to get on the long run. While many may say that coughing out Ksh 300,000 for just a solar project in Kenya is too much money, please remember that that this is a one off payment, there is no recurrent monthly payment, the system is yours once payment is completed unlike power supply from the grid where you have to pay exorbitant bills on a monthly basis.
The most important determinant of cost of solar power installation in Kenya is your expected capacity or power usage.
Key Factors That Determine the Cost of Solar Power Installation in Kenya
