Anern has 16 years of experience in solar lighting and solar product manufacturing. Anern is headquartered in Guangzhou. With a production base of 7,000 square meters, our company has an R&D team of more than 100 people.
This case study is about the deployment of 20 sets of gel battery solar systems in Kenya, aimed at supporting local electricity demand in regions affected by grid instability. The project highlights Anern gel battery systems providing reliable energy storage solutions for emerging solar markets in East Africa.
Project Location: Kenya
Date: May 8, 2024
System Type: Gel battery solar energy systems
Quantity: 20 Sets
Buyer Type: Photovoltaic wholesaler
Application: Local electricity supply support
Installation model: Complete system deployment
Kenya continues to experience uneven power supply in certain regions, particularly in areas where grid coverage and stability remain limited. At the same time, the country benefits from favorable solar irradiation conditions, making solar energy systems a practical solution for improving power access.

For photovoltaic wholesalers and solar energy integrators operating in Kenya, key requirements include:
Stable and predictable energy storage
System reliability under frequent charge–discharge cycles
Compatibility with local installation and maintenance conditions
In May 2024, a Kenyan solar energy wholesaler participated in Middle East Electricity (MEE), an international exhibition focused on power and energy technologies. The event brought together manufacturers, distributors, and professionals from the global solar and energy storage industry.
During the exhibition, the wholesaler evaluated solar products and system solutions from multiple suppliers, focusing on complete systems rather than individual components.
At Anern's MEE exhibition booth, the wholesaler reviewed a gel battery-based solar system, which integrates:
Gel batteries for energy storage
Required system wiring and accessories
Technical discussions focused on system compatibility with Kenya's local power usage patterns and installation conditions. Particular attention is about the operational characteristics of gel batteries, including:
Reliability in high-frequency operation
Maintenance-free
Suitability for off-grid and backup power scenarios
With more in-depth technical communication, the photovoltaic wholesaler selected Anern's gel battery solar system solution.
Anern's gel battery solar systems contributed to:
Improved local power availability
Reduced dependence on unstable grid electricity
Practical energy storage support for daily power needs
From the wholesaler's perspective, the project demonstrated that integrated gel battery systems can address short-term power supply challenges while remaining accessible for local installation and operation.
This project serves as a reference for similar markets where:
Grid power reliability is limited
Solar resources are sufficient
Cost-effective and stable energy storage solutions are required
It illustrates how gel battery solar systems can be deployed at small-to-medium scale to support local electricity demand without complex infrastructure upgrades.
Q: Why were gel batteries selected for this project?
A: Gel batteries offer stable performance, low maintenance, and suitability for frequent operations, making them practical for local power support applications.
Q: What type of users did this project serve?
A: The systems were used to support local electricity demand for end users affected by unstable grid power.
Q: Is this solution suitable for other regions in Africa?
A: Yes. Similar power and environmental conditions exist in many African markets where gel battery solar systems can provide effective energy storage.
Q: Does this system work with future upgrades?
A: Integrated systems can be expanded or adapted depending on future power demand and system design requirements.
