Choosing a solar installation isn't just about buying panels. Proper sizing, battery selection, and inverter quality determine your system's reliability over 20 years. Here are our guidelines.
Step 1 — Assess your needs
List your appliances, their power rating, and their daily usage time. The average Senegalese family consumes between 3 and 8 kWh per day. A shop or workshop can use up to 20-30 kWh.
Step 2 — Choose the right configuration
Self-consumption, hybrid, or off-grid? The right choice depends on your location, the quality of the public grid, and your budget. Our team will guide you through this strategic decision.
Step 3 — Select certified equipment
Beware of prices that are too low. A poor-quality panel will lose 30% of its efficiency in 5 years, compared to 10% over 25 years for a premium panel. The same applies to batteries: lithium batteries have a longer lifespan than lead-acid batteries.
