One of the most tangible and substantial reasons to go solar is the reduction or elimination of energy costs. The electricity a solar system produces offsets your electrical usage, significantly reducing or in some cases even eliminating your electric bill, so you can spend money elsewhere, or save the difference.
Electricity costs in Kenya have risen by double digits in the past 10 years and continue to do so in a volatile way – making it difficult to budget this line item year over year. With solar, you can accurately forecast the cost of your energy use for more than 25 years.
