Solar can be a major investment. Before you commit, we help you understand whether the system you have been quoted is correctly sized, fairly priced, and suitable for your home. Simply upload or send us your quote, and we will review it at a high level and get back to you with our observations.

Best for Homeowners who have already received a solar quote and want independent feedback before paying a deposit. If the quote appears overpriced, undersized, or poorly structured, we can also recommend a better-fit solution and, where possible, suggest flexible payment options.

This package is for homeowners, landlords, home offices, and small businesses that want a properly sized solar system before buying equipment or committing to an installer. We review your energy needs, backup expectations, appliances, electricity bill, and available roof or installation space. From this, we recommend a suitable solar system size, inverter capacity, battery capacity, and estimated project cost.

The goal is to help you avoid buying an undersized system, overspending on unnecessary equipment, or accepting a quote that does not match your actual needs.

Best for Homeowners and small businesses that want expert guidance before investing in solar.

Client Experiences

What SheSpeaksSolar clients say

"

I had three quotes — all for different system sizes, all claiming to be the right one. SheSpeaksSolar reviewed all three at no cost and found that two were significantly undersized. The third was 40% overpriced. The review saved me over KSh 180,000.

As a developer building 24 units in Ruaka, I needed someone who could design the solar specification for the whole estate and help us evaluate contractor bids fairly. The advisory engagement has been invaluable — like having an in-house solar engineer.

Our tea factory in Limuru needed a credible solar ROI analysis before we could take it to the board. SheSpeaksSolar prepared the full commercial package — load assessment, system design, and finance readiness summary. The project is now approved and in procurement.

FAQ

Questions about our consulting services

100% independent. SheSpeaksSolar does not receive commission, referral fees, or any other payment from solar installers, panel manufacturers, or equipment suppliers. Our advice is based entirely on what is best for you. Where we refer clients to our trusted installer network, this is based solely on quality and licensing — not commercial arrangements. That independence is the foundation of everything we do.

The KSh 5,000 design fee is refundable if you confirm and carry out your solar installation through one of our recommended supplier and installer partners. This is because we earn a referral when you go through our network, which covers the design cost. If you choose to use a different installer — which you are entirely free to do — the fee is retained. Either way, the design report is yours to keep and use with any installer you choose.

The easiest way is via WhatsApp at +254 743 475 752 — you can send a photo, screenshot, or PDF of the quote directly. You can also email it to hello@shespeakssolar.com. We aim to get back to you within 2 business days with our observations.

In-person site visits are available across greater Nairobi (Karen, Ruaka, Westlands, Kilimani, Thika Road, and surrounding areas) and Kiambu County (Kikuyu, Limuru, Tigoni, Ruiru, Thika). All other consulting is available online via video call, WhatsApp, or email — accessible across all of Kenya and East Africa.

The full home solar system design is delivered within 7–10 business days after we receive all required information from you — your electricity bills, appliance list, roof details, and backup expectations. We will confirm the exact timeline and information requirements when we scope the engagement.

Yes. We work with NGOs, international development organisations, county government agencies, schools, healthcare facilities, and community-based organisations across Kenya. We can provide formal proposals, letters of engagement, invoices in the required format, and all documentation needed for procurement compliance and donor reporting. Contact us at hello@shespeakssolar.com or via WhatsApp to discuss your specific requirements.
