Practical solar energy solutions that help farmers reduce post-harvest losses, increase agricultural productivity, and access reliable clean electricity across Kenya.

01Solar Drying Solutions

Preserve More.
Waste Less. Earn More.

Transform fresh produce into market-ready, shelf-stable products using solar dryers that work 3× faster than open-air drying with zero diesel, zero firewood, and zero contamination.

  • Reduce post-harvest losses: Protect fruits, vegetables, and grains from spoilage during peak harvests.
  • Increase income potential: Sell premium dried products well beyond harvest gluts.
  • 3× faster drying: Solar thermal collection dries in hours, not days.
  • Hygienic food safety: Enclosed chamber blocks contamination, birds, mold and pests.

40%+ loss prevented
"Before Sundara Africa installed our greenhouse solar dryer, post-harvest losses routinely took away over 40% of our mango and tomato harvests during peak season gluts. Now, our cooperative dehydrates over 300 kg per batch in hygienic, sealed conditions. Our members sell dried fruit to premium urban markets all year at three times the fresh gate price."

100% diesel displaced
"Sundara engineered and commissioned our 20 kWp solar water pumping scheme in Laikipia. Replacing our diesel generator completely eliminated our heaviest recurring monthly expense and ensured continuous drip irrigation throughout dry seasons. Their technical team handled everything from civil foundations to electrical commissioning with complete professionalism."

80% bill reduction
"Frequent power blackouts were disrupting my work and damaging household appliances. Sundara installed a 12 kWp solar array with a 20 kWh lithium battery storage system in Karen. The automatic switchover during grid drops is instantaneous and whisper-quiet. Our monthly power bills dropped by over 80%."

Export-grade quality
"Sundara's 50 kg cabinet solar dryer has allowed our women's agribusiness to dehydrate bananas, herbs, and mushrooms with consistent color and flavor. Open-air drying left us vulnerable to rain and dust; now we supply sealed, certified dried produce to retail shops in Nairobi year-round."
