Project Details
In Diani, Kwale County, our client John Loveridge reached out to us after seeing one of our completed solar projects posted on our Social Media pages. He was impressed by our workmanship, system quality, and professional approach. John had been relying on an old, underperforming solar system that used lead-acid batteries and low-efficiency panels, which no longer met his household power needs.
To address these challenges, ALKIM Green Galaxy Limited conducted an on-site survey and recommended a full system upgrade to a modern, efficient, and robust 8kW hybrid solar system paired with 10kWh lithium battery storage. This upgrade ensures reliable, stable power supply and eliminates the limitations of the old system.

Solar Components Used in the 10kW Solar Power System Project
This upgraded package included:
10 units of 625 watts monocrystalline solar panels.8kW 48V Hybrid Inverter.
10kWh Lithium Battery Bank.
AC/DC protection devices and surge protection.
High-efficiency cables and installation accessories.
Decommissioning and disposal of the old system.
New mounting structure for optimized performance.
What a 8kW Solar Power System Can Power
This high-capacity system comfortably supports:
Up to 40–50 lights and all household socket circuits.
Fridge, freezer, microwave, blenders, and entertainment systems.
Washing machine, water pump, iron box.
WIFI router, computers, and office equipment.
Several kitchen appliances running simultaneously.
The system is perfect for modern residential homes with high daily consumption.
Project Summary
John had been experiencing poor performance, low efficiency, and frequent downtime from his old solar installation. The aged lead-acid batteries had deteriorated significantly, and the older-generation panels were producing minimal power. As a result, the system could no longer sustain his household appliances or offer reliable backup during outages.
After conducting a full technical assessment, we proposed a complete solar system overhaul. The recommendation was an 8kW hybrid solar system with 10kWh lithium storage, providing superior efficiency, longer lifespan, and higher reliability.
We safely decommissioned and removed the old system, then installed a new, modern solar setup designed to meet John’s current and future energy needs.
Overview
The installation was executed with precision, ensuring maximum solar exposure for the 625W panels mounted on a strengthened structure. The hybrid inverter was programmed to optimize solar utilization, battery charging, and intelligent power distribution.
The lithium battery storage now delivers consistent night-time power, improved durability, and excellent depth-of-discharge performance far superior to the previous lead-acid setup.
John’s home now enjoys a stable, quiet, and clean energy supply with minimal maintenance requirements.
Results
After commissioning the system, John now benefits from:
Greatly Improved Performance – Strong solar production and long-lasting battery backup.Full System Reliability – No more shutdowns or low-voltage issues.
Energy Independence – Minimal reliance on grid power.
Cost Savings – Reduced electricity bills and lower maintenance costs.
Modern Technology – High-efficiency panels and lithium batteries offering long-term value.
Enhanced Quality of Life – Smooth operation of all essential and lifestyle appliances.
The upgrade has transformed his energy experience, delivering comfort and reliability.
