There are three main types of solar PV and storage systems in Kenya: grid-tied, grid/hybrid and off-grid.
They all have their advantages and disadvantages and it really comes down to the customer''s current energy demand,
And what they want to get out of the system.
A grid-tied system is a basic solar installation that uses a standard grid-tied inverter and does not have any battery storage.
Grid-tied systems are simple to design and are very cost effective because they have relatively few components.
One disadvantage of this type of system is that when the power goes out, so does your system.
Grid-tied inverters have to automatically disconnect when they don''t sense the grid.
Grid-tied system with battery back-up
The next type of system is a grid tied system with battery back-up, otherwise known as a grid-hybrid system.
Or generally just want to be prepared for outages.
Off-grid systems are great for customers who can''t easily connect to the grid.
This may be because of geographical location or high cost of bringing in the power supply.

In most cases, it doesn''t make much sense for a person connected to the grid to completely disconnect and do an off-grid system.
The benefits of an off grid system is that a person can become energy self-sufficient and can power remote places away from the grid.
You can start out with a small, budget-conscious system and add on over time.

While the concept of using solar panels to charge batteries is not new, recent advancements in technology give solar pv system owners many different storage options. Some, that were previously not thought possible! The task of choosing which solar and storage option in Kenya is right for you or your customers may seem daunting, so it is important to understand what solar pv storage is, and what it can do for you.
A solar pv system with storage added operates in a very similar way to a standard solar array. The panels collect sunlight and convert it into electricity. However, in a system with storage included, that electricity generated on the roof (or in solar fields) passes through a specialized inverter that is able to both charge the battery as well as power the home- all with solar energy. That energy can be used in many different ways. The specialized solar+battery inverters allow system owners to monitor electric production of the solar array, current charge levels of the battery, as well as real-time electric usage of their home/business.
Using this information they are also able to program and manage at what points the solar powers the battery and the home. A common application is charging the battery via solar to full capacity in the morning, once charged the solar would power the home, and once the sun sets for the day the battery would then power the home- avoiding as much utility usage as possible and allowing a home to operate almost completely from renewable energy. Another common application is simply charging the battery and letting it remain fully charged in case of a power outage.
While each storage product may have its own specific requirements, it is most often possible to include storage at any facility where solar PV is currently, or capable of being installed. Solar and storage is not limited to homes, it can be installed in commercial properties, houses of worship, remote facilities such as barns, docks, cell towers, etc. Some individuals may even choose to have a storage system installed in their home without a solar pv system. The specific location of the storage unit from site to site can vary greatly, but it is typically best practice to choose an indoor location with climate control.
