Blackouts are getting longer and more unpredictable in 2025. Kenya Power’s own data shows Nairobi now averages 4–8 hours of load-shedding some weeks, while rural areas can go 12+ hours without power.If any of these 7 things are happening in your house right now, you are literally burning money every single day — and a Globus Solar backup system will pay for itself faster than you think.Sign #1: Your monthly generator diesel bill is over KSh 4,000
Most families we visit spend KSh 5,000–15,000 on petrol/diesel every month. That’s KSh 60,000–180,000 a year — enough to buy a full lithium backup system in under 4 years.Sign #2: Food keeps spoiling in the fridge/freezer
One 6-hour blackout can ruin KSh 10,000+ worth of meat, milk, and vaccines. Our customers tell us this used to happen 2–3 times a month. Never again after solar backup.Sign #3: You’re charging phones at the mall or petrol station
If you’ve ever paid KSh 50–100 to charge your phone because home power has been off all day, you already know the frustration.Sign #4: Kids can’t study after 7 pm
KCPE and KCSE candidates lose precious evening study hours when lights go off. A small 3kW Globus backup keeps lights, Wi-Fi, and laptops running all night.Sign #5: You own a business from home (salon, shop, POS, tailoring, cyber)
Even 30 minutes of blackout can mean KSh 2,000–10,000 lost revenue. Our salon owners in Ngong and Thika say backup solar doubled their daily earnings.Sign #6: You have medical equipment at home
Oxygen concentrators, CPAP machines, nebulisers — these cannot switch off even for 5 minutes. We’ve installed life-saving backup systems for elderly parents and asthmatic children.Sign #7: Your Kenya Power bill keeps jumping every quarter
EPRA just raised tariffs again in November 2025. If your last three bills keep climbing even when usage is the same, solar backup locks in your costs forever.Real Customer Example (October 2025)
Grace Wambui – Ruiru
“Blackouts were 6–10 hours daily. My deep freezer spoiled twice (lost KSh 48,000 stock). We installed a 5kW Globus hybrid system with lithium battery for KSh 680,000 on 12-month plan. Now lights, TV, fridge, and Wi-Fi never go off — and we’ve already saved KSh 96,000 in diesel in just 4 months.”How Much Does Backup Cost in 2025? (Globus Solar Prices)
