Millions of learners across Kenya still attend schools with unreliable or no electricity, cutting off access to lighting for evening study, computers, projectors, and the digital learning resources that increasingly define modern education. Grid extension to many rural and underserved schools is slow, expensive, or simply not on the horizon — which is exactly the gap decentralised solar power is built to close.
We design and install solar power systems specifically for school environments — from single-classroom setups to full-campus installations ranging from 3kW to 50kW, complete with battery storage for reliable power after sunset. Every installation is sized to the school's actual electrical needs (lighting, ICT labs, staff facilities) and built to withstand real school conditions: heavy daily use, minimal maintenance capacity, and long operational lifespans without specialist technical staff on-site.
What's Included
- A site assessment and energy needs analysis specific to the school's classrooms and facilities
- Solar system design sized correctly for current and near-future electricity needs
- Full installation including panels, battery storage, and wiring for 24-hour power availability
- Safety training for school staff on basic system operation and care
- A maintenance plan to keep the system running reliably for years, not just at installation
- Optional integration with computer labs, projectors, and other digital learning equipment
