How Solar Panels Work in a Home Solar System

Solar panels for home use convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity using silicon photovoltaic (PV) cells. When photons strike the silicon cells, they dislodge electrons, creating an electric current. A solar inverter then converts this DC electricity into 240V AC power — the same electricity your home appliances run on.

A complete home solar system in Kenya consists of solar panels on the roof, a solar inverter, a battery bank for backup power during KPLC outages, and a charge controller. Go Solar Ltd supplies and installs all components.

Types of Solar Panels for Home Use in Kenya

  • Monocrystalline panels — most efficient (19–22%), best for homes with limited roof space. Recommended for most Kenyan homes.
  • Polycrystalline panels — slightly less efficient (15–18%) but lower cost per watt. Good for larger roof areas.
  • Half-cut cell panels — newer technology with better shade tolerance and higher output. Available in JA Solar, LONGi, and Jinko ranges.

Uses of Solar Panels for Homes in Kenya
