Salphak provides professional solar installation services in Kenya for residential homes, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities. Based in Nairobi, our certified technicians design and install complete solar power systems — from small 1kW household setups to large commercial solar power installations exceeding 100kW.
Whether you need to cut your KPLC bill, protect your business from power outages, or go fully off-grid, we build the right solar system for your needs and budget.
We install solar systems for homes across Nairobi and Kenya. A typical 3-bedroom house requires a 3kW to 5kW solar installation to run lights, TV, fridge and phone charging. Our residential installations include solar panels, a hybrid inverter, battery storage and all mounting hardware — fully installed and commissioned.
For offices, retail shops, schools, hospitals and factories, we design commercial solar installations starting from 10kW upward. Commercial solar significantly reduces electricity costs and protects against load-shedding. We conduct a free energy audit before recommending a system size.
For properties with no KPLC connection — rural homes, farms, remote businesses — we install complete off-grid solar power systems with sufficient battery storage to power your property 24/7.
A hybrid system stays connected to the KPLC grid but uses solar first, only drawing from the grid when needed. This gives you the best of both worlds — low electricity bills and grid backup when solar is insufficient.
We install DC and AC solar-powered water pumps for boreholes, irrigation and domestic water supply. See our Solar Water Pumps page for available pump models.
We provide solar installation in Nairobi and across Kenya including Kiambu, Machakos, Nakuru, Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret and surrounding counties. We travel for large commercial and agricultural projects countrywide.
Solar installation costs in Kenya depend on system size and battery capacity:
Prices are indicative and include panels, inverter, batteries and installation. Contact us for a site-specific quote.
A standard residential solar installation takes 1–2 days. Larger commercial installations may take 3–5 days depending on system complexity and roof access.
For most residential rooftop solar installations, no planning approval is required. Large commercial ground-mount systems may need county approval. We advise on this during the site assessment stage.
A typical Kenyan household uses 5–15 kWh per day. For a 3-bedroom home, 6–10 x 400W solar panels is a common system size. We calculate this precisely during your free site assessment.
Quality solar panels last 25–30 years. Inverters typically last 10–12 years. Lithium batteries last 8–12 years depending on usage cycles. We install tier-1 equipment to maximise your return on investment.
