Systems

The right configuration for your supply.

Grid-tied

Solar generation that runs alongside the grid to cut daytime consumption: the lowest cost per kWh for sites with a reliable supply.

Hybrid with batteries

Solar plus battery storage and hybrid inverters for backup during outages and to shift solar energy into the evening.

Off-grid

Independent systems for full energy autonomy at remote sites, lodges and camps, including solar-diesel hybrid site power.

Engineered properly

Designed and installed by our own engineers.

Solar is only as good as its integration with the rest of the electrical system. Because our solar work is backed by an EPRA Class A-1 engineering team, we handle protection, switchgear, power quality and grid connection in-house.

Combined with energy efficiency first, a smaller system covers more of your load and pays back sooner.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do you design grid-tied, hybrid and off-grid systems?

Yes. Through Twende Solar we design and install grid-tied, hybrid and off-grid solar PV systems, with battery storage, hybrid inverters and monitoring.

What size of solar projects do you handle?

From residential rooftops to commercial, industrial and utility-scale plants. We have completed over 100 solar projects, including a 600 kWp plant for a manufacturer in Kenya.

Are you licensed for solar in Kenya?

Yes. We hold EPRA Solar PV Contractor V1 and Solar PV Importer V2, C1 licences, and an EPRA Class A-1 electrical contractor licence for grid connection works up to 66 kV.

Should we do energy efficiency before solar?

Usually, yes. Reducing losses first means a smaller, cheaper solar system covers more of your load. Our feasibility study looks at both together.
