Commercial Solar Systems – What To Consider
Cost Effectiveness
Before investing in any solar system in Kenya, make sure to check for cost effectiveness. Depending upon your particular need and area, there are various components that influence the cost viability for your business, including:
Solar Power System Size
Bigger solar power system can cost less money per watt than small systems due to economies of scale.
Operation and Maintenance (O&M)
In contrast with other power generation methods, O&M expenses of solar-powered systems are generally low. Expenses may incorporate infrequent cleaning of solar modules, customary visual examinations and repair, and conceivable substitution of inverters or other components.
Solar System Production
Installing your system at the correct orientation and pitch will ensure that you are getting the best possible results. Overall system production will also depend on the location of the installation.
Installation Complexity
More complex installations include ground-mounted systems. Working around deterrents, such as funnels and HVAC gear, and building-coordinated custom establishments can be more extravagant in price.
Jesaton Systems now offers 100% guaranteed cash flow positive investments for commercial solar installations.
Our Commercial Solar photovoltaic (PV) installations range from 5 kW to 1,000 kW+ and are a sure way to improve the sustainability and profitability of your business.
That is just the reason why commercial solar panel installations are becoming more popular in Kenya. It used to be an expensive investment in the past, with a long financial payback period – too long for many. However, with the dramatic increase in electricity prices, and falling solar panel prices, commercial solar PV installations have become more than viable today.
With electricity prices increasing over 50% in the last seven years, falling material costs and continuing Government incentives, commercial solar panel installations are now in the ‘sweet spot’ in terms of low prices and high yields.
While Solar has really taken off in the residential marketplace, the uptake in the commercial sphere has been slow. This can largely be put down to a lack of understanding and expertise on how commercial solar PV can work for businesses. Jesaton Systems is one of the few Kenyan providers with extensive experience in managing the funding and financial viability of a project, as well as the approvals to connect the solar power system to the power network.
Commercial Solar Finance
Upfront solar installation costs can be high for big projects. However, many financial institutions are now offering financial packages with which you can get 100% finance, meaning no out-of-pocket expenses when starting off.
How long for commercial solar power in Kenya to pay itself off? The best case scenario would be a financial return of just two years, and the worst case would be three years.
Our extensive Energy Management Service can turn your business into an efficient and cost-effective operation.
