Rising electricity costs, fuel price hikes, and frequent power outages make traditional water pumps expensive and unreliable. That’s why more Kenyans are turning to solar‑powered borehole and surface water pumps — and Teko Engineering Ltd has become a trusted partner for end‑to‑end solar energy powered pump installation services across all 47 counties.
Why Choose Solar Powered Pumps in Kenya?
Solar energy powered pumps are one of the most sustainable, cost‑effective solutions for water pumping in Kenya. Instead of paying high electricity bills or diesel‑fuelled running costs, you only rely on the sun — which is abundant and free.
-
Lower operating costs: After the initial setup, you pay almost nothing for running the pump.
-
Energy‑independent: No more dependence on the grid or unreliable generators.
-
Environmentally friendly: Zero emissions and no fuel spills.
-
Remote‑area friendly: Perfect for farms, homesteads, and lodges in off‑grid locations.
Teko Engineering Ltd designs and installs complete solar pump systems matched to your borehole or water source depth, water demand, and usage pattern.

Types of Solar Pump Systems We Install
Teko Engineering Ltd installs several types of solar powered water pumps depending on your water source and depth:
1. Solar Submersible Borehole Pumps
Used in deep wells and boreholes, these pumps sit inside the borehole and are powered directly by solar panels. They are ideal for farms, hotels, and homes that need high‑volume water at great depths.
2. Solar Surface Pumps
Used where water is already at the surface (rivers, dams, or shallow wells), solar surface pumps are cheaper to install and easier to maintain. They are perfect for small farms, livestock watering, and domestic water supply.
3. Irrigation‑Specific Solar Pumps
For commercial farms, nurseries, and large‑scale irrigation, we install high‑capacity solar irrigation pumps that can run sprinklers, drip systems, and overhead irrigation networks.
Each system is designed to match your borehole depth, water demand, and available sunlight so your system runs efficiently and reliably.
Who Benefits from Solar Pump Installation Services?
Teko Engineering’s solar energy powered pump installation service is suitable for:
-
Farmers and agribusinesses: For reliable irrigation, livestock watering, and aquaculture, solar pumps cut water‑pumping costs and increase crop yields.
-
Homes and housing estates: For domestic water supply, solar pumps deliver consistent water without high electricity bills.
-
Hotels, lodges, and schools: For large water needs, solar pumps reduce running costs and keep operations running even during power cuts.
-
Factories and commercial sites: For industrial water use, cooling, and sanitation, solar‑powered systems provide stable, low‑cost water.
Whether you’re in Nairobi, Mombasa, Nakuru, Kisumu, Eldoret, or rural Kenya, Teko Engineering can install a solar pump system that fits your budget and location.
