Solar Water Pump Prices
Solar water pump prices in Kenya by Grekkon Limited are provided based on the pump specs. Our submersible solar water pumps for sale in Kenya are categorised as;
- Motor size. This is given in kilo watts (kW) or horse power (Hp). The motor operates on direct current (DC) generated by the solar panels, or from a battery. The larger the motor size, the more the power a motor consumes, and provides to the pump
- Head. This is the pressure rating provided in meters (M) or bar. It determines how far vertically that pump will push water. The higher the pressure rating, the higher the push. Deep wells use higher pressure rated submersible solar pumps than shallow wells
- Flow rate. It is the volume of water evacuated over a given time unit. This is given as litres per second, or per minute, or as cubic litres per hour. This determines the size of the outlet pipe. A pump that evacuates more water has a larger outlet
Smaller domestic water pumps are portable solar water pumps. It is easy to move them from one shallow well to another. This is not the case for large, permanent, deep well solar water pumps

We install submersible solar water pumps across east Africa for all well sizes. Before an installation is made, a well analysis is conducted to ensure the right solar submersible water pump is provided.
Electric Water Pump Prices
Electric water pump prices by Grekkon Limited are provided for both surface electric water pumps, and electric submersible water pumps.
Similarities Between surface, and Submersible Electric Water Pumps
- both use alternating (AC) current
- both have electric motors to power the pump
- each either works with single or 3-phase power depending on the motor size
- each has domestic use, and commercial irrigation use models
- both are centrifugal pumps
- both categories have sewage pumps
Differences Between Surface, and Submersible Electric Water Pumps
- surface electric pumps only work outside of water
- submersible electric water pumps only work inside water
- submersible electric pumps are made of stainless steel
- a surface electric pump’s body is made of cast iron
- there are booster pumps as electric surface pumps. There is no such for submersible electric pumps

Submersible Water Pump Prices
Our submersible water pump prices in Kenya are for 2 types of submersible water pumps. Solar water pumps, and electric water pumps. Solar water pumps are powered by sunlight and are ideal for off-grid electricity locations. Electric water pumps are connected to the power grid. Grekkon Limited installs both pump types across east Africa
Similarities Between Solar, and Electric Submersible Pumps
- they both work under water
- each has an electric motor to power it
- they both use an electric current
Difference Between Solar, and Electric Submersible Water Pumps
- solar pumps use direct current (DC), electric pumps use alternating current
- electric pumps motors are further categorised as single or 3 phase. This does not apply to solar pumps
- with an inverter to change current from DC to AC, an electric pump’s motor will run on solar panels
- solar pumps are more expensive for the same specs as electric pumps
- solar pumps will require denser cables for the same specs as electric pumps
- electric pumps are more expensive in the long-term because of power bills. The running cost of a solar pumps is negligible
- some smaller solar pumps can be battery powered directly in the absence of sunlight

3. What is the most powerful water pump?
The most powerful water pump is one with the highest;
- flow rate
- head
- Hp or kilo watt rating
Top water pumps in Kenya are varied. The best water pumps in Kenya are based on the client’s preferred use.
Solar Pump Prices In Kenya
Grekkon Limited’s solar pump prices in Kenya for shallow wells and boreholes are determined from test pumping results. Being a top solar water pump suppliers in Kenya, every pump is unique. This is in it’s power rating, head, and flow rate. Our solar water pumps for agriculture under irrigation are available in our branches countrywide.
- Power rating. This is the motor kilowatts (kW) or horsepower (Hp)
- Head. This is the maximum vertical height the solar water pump will push water. It is inversely related to the flow rate
- Flow rate. The amount of water the water pump evacuates per given time. This is indicated as; per second, minute, or hour

A borehole solar water pump in Kenya’s price is from the test pumping results.
Every solar water pump in Kenya by our technical team is aligned to the power wattage, and water level. This ensures efficiency and maximum longevity. We provide a one year warranty with each pump, and a detailed operational manual.
Our submersible DC solar pumps work with photo-voltaic cells solar panels for both deep well, and shallow wells. Each solar cell has two or more specially prepared layers of semiconductor material that produce direct current (DC) electricity. This DC current is collected by the wiring in the panel. It is then supplied either to a DC pump, which in turn pumps water. Photovoltaic (PV) systems have a high input cost. It has many features which make it attractive as an alternative source of power. It is clean, as it produces no carbon emission. There is no noise generation, and it has low operational and maintenance cost
