One System Powering Two Homes in Tigoni

Tigoni sits in the heart of Kiambu County — cool climate, green surroundings, and growing demand for reliable power. These two homeowners came to us with a shared goal: eliminate their dependence on the grid and stop paying for power they couldn't always count on.

We designed a single high-capacity hybrid solar system to serve both residences, maximizing efficiency and giving each household full energy independence with enough battery storage to run through the night and through any outage.

What This System Delivers

  • ✓Full daytime operation on solar power for two households
  • ✓32kWh of lithium battery storage for uninterrupted power after sunset and during blackouts
  • ✓Automatic switching between solar, battery, and grid — zero manual intervention
  • ✓Significant reduction in monthly electricity bills for both homes
  • ✓Zero generator dependency — no fuel costs, no noise, no emissions

Project Highlights

This project demonstrates what's possible when neighbours invest in solar together. By combining demand into one properly sized system, both households benefit from a higher-capacity inverter and deeper battery reserve than they would typically install individually — delivering better performance and better value.

The Sunware Energy team handled the full scope — site survey, system design, structural mounting, electrical wiring, battery installation, commissioning, and handover. The system was sized against actual consumption data to ensure every panel earns its place on the roof.

For homeowners in Tigoni and across Kiambu County, this is what modern energy looks like — clean, quiet, and always on.
