Estimates based on typical South African household use. Final pricing depends on product, deposit, term and availability.
How does this calculator work?
1. Select the alternatives you currently use — candles, paraffin, phone charging, or batteries. Each has an estimated monthly cost.
2. Choose a KES solar plan. Each plan has a fixed monthly payment for a set term (e.g. 24 or 30 months).
3. See your savings. Alternatives cost you every month, forever. A KES plan costs a fixed amount for the plan term — after that, your system is fully paid off and costs R0 per month. The longer you use it, the more you save.
What we believe
Three values, not negotiable.
Access
No credit check. Ever.
Your South African ID is enough. We don't ask for payslips, bank statements or guarantors. Subject to affordability checks.
Ownership
Ownership after your completed term.
No hidden fees at the end of your term. Once you complete your payments, the system is yours to keep — no strings attached.
Choose your system
Three sizes. One promise.
Compare monthly PayGo options. Deposits and terms vary by plan and availability.
