Why Tanzanian families are switching to solar energy

Electricity tariffs keep rising and power cuts disrupt daily life. Solar addresses both.

Lower your bill

Solar energy reduces how much electricity you buy from TANESCO or ZECO, and locks in your energy cost for years.

Stay powered through blackouts

With battery backup, your fridge, fans, lights and Wi-Fi keep running when the grid goes down.

A long-term investment

A solar system keeps producing electricity for 25 years or more, with minimal maintenance.

Which system fits your home

We design each system around your home, your electricity use and your grid connection.

Grid-connected solar

Your panels cover part of your daytime consumption, and you draw the rest from TANESCO or ZECO as usual. The most affordable way to start.

Best for: urban homes with a stable grid connection

Solar with battery backup

Panels and battery working together. When the grid fails, your home keeps running as normal.

Best for: homes with frequent blackouts

Off-grid solar system

Panels and batteries with no grid connection.

Best for: rural homes, farms and areas without reliable grid access

Sized for your home

From a small apartment to a large compound, system size depends on your consumption and roof space.

Apartments and townhouses

Typically 2 to 3 kWp, covering most daytime use.

Family houses

Typically 5 to 8 kWp, with optional battery backup.

Villas and larger compounds

Typically 10 to 20 kWp, often with battery storage.

Rural and off-grid homes

Off-grid systems sized to your household needs, including water pumping where relevant.
