5KVA Hybrid Solar Solution
The 5KVA Synowatt Hybrid Solar Solution is Kenya’s benchmark turnkey solar kit for 3-5 bedroom residential homes, executive apartments, retail shops, clinics, and offices. Powered by a robust 5,000W continuous pure sine wave inverter, 6 × 615W Tier-1 solar panels (3.7kWp), and a 5.12kWh (expandable to 10.24kWh) LiFePO4 battery, this setup reliably powers heavier domestic appliances including microwaves, automatic washing machines, booster water pumps, blenders, multiple refrigerators, and complete entertainment systems.

How the 5KVA Hybrid Solar System Operates
Smart energy management optimized for Kenya Power (KPLC) grid interaction and solar irradiance.
Daytime Solar Direct
During sunshine hours, the high-efficiency solar panels power your running appliances directly. Excess power is automatically routed to recharge the lithium battery bank to 100%.
Evening Battery Power
At sunset, the system automatically discharges clean power stored in the lithium LiFePO4 battery, avoiding expensive peak grid tariff rates while keeping your home comfortable.
Uninterrupted Blackout UPS
When a KPLC power outage strikes, the inverter changes over in less than 10 milliseconds. Your TVs, lights, Wi-Fi, and refrigerators continue running with zero reboot or disturbance.
