Kongratulations Kenya

The Kenyan government has just announced that ALL solar panels entering the country will have to be certified moving forward…YEAH!
This is the first government to finally recognize the need to validate off-grid solar panels. While most governments have held either IEC, CE or UL certification for “grid-tied” solar panels, there has been little regulation of panels that are not tied to the electric grid.
Let’s hope that this is the beginning of a trend that translates into other countries following this example. I know this probably means that there are more false-rated panels now available for other markets, but as I’ve said before, the truth shall always prevail, it may just take a bit more time than some of us would like…
Off to view more Canadian Open tennis. Agassi was awesome last night…

    Hello there,
    Help!
    I need all the info I can get on solar panels in Kenya because I am trying to get some installed on our farm out there. We need them basically for pumping water, heating the boilers (3) inthe house & electricity.
    Can you direct me into the right direction because it seems that you know a thing or 2 about the good ones??
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.
    Ann
