Project Details
In Kabula, Bungoma County, our client Lucas required a dependable and high-capacity solar solution for his upcountry mansion. The area experiences frequent grid instability, especially during the rainy seasons, leading to unreliable power supply, voltage fluctuations, and extended outages.
To ensure uninterrupted comfort and reliable operation of household appliances, Lucas approached ALKIM Green Galaxy Limited for a robust and long-term energy solution. After conducting a comprehensive load assessment, we designed and installed a 10kW hybrid solar system, supported by a 16kWh lithium battery energy storage system (BESS) and 10 high-efficiency 590W solar panels.
The system was engineered to deliver strong daytime generation, reliable nighttime backup, and overall energy independence from the unstable grid.
