Location: Langata, Nairobi
Project Type: Solar Water Pumping Upgrade
System Size: 15 kWp PV + 11 kW Solar Pump Inverter
Client Status: Existing borehole & pump already installed
🔹 Project Summary
The Kenya Solar Installers team successfully completed a solar water pumping upgrade for a client in Langata. The client already had a functioning borehole and pump, and required a reliable solar power solution to reduce energy costs and improve daily water pumping efficiency.
Our scope involved designing and installing a solar-powered system capable of running the existing pump during the day using clean, renewable energy.
🔹 System Components Installed
1. 15 kWp Solar PV Array
24 high-efficiency 625W solar panels
Mounted on a durable, sunlight-optimized structure
Designed to generate reliable daytime power for water pumping
2. 11 kW Solar Pump Inverter
Fully configured for maximum pump performance
Automatically matches power output to sunlight conditions
Ensures smooth starting and continuous operation of the borehole pump
3. Structural Works
Fabrication and installation of a strong mounting structure
Proper alignment for maximum solar exposure
Secure cable routing and system protection
🔹 Project Outcome
This system now allows the client to pump water entirely using solar energy, eliminating daytime electricity costs and reducing dependency on the grid.
The result is a clean, efficient, and cost-effective water supply solution that will continue to perform reliably for years.
🔹 Why Solar Water Pumping?
✔ Zero daytime electricity costs
✔ Ideal for boreholes, farms, households, schools & community projects
✔ Low maintenance and long lifespan
✔ Reliable water supply even during power outages
