Get to know us

Established in 2007, Strauss Energy is a Kenyan firm comprising accomplished and enterprising innovators in the fields of engineering, energy and construction. We provide a solution to the energy problem currently being experienced by businesses and households by providing renewable and cost-effective energy through BIPV technology, a revolutionary solar-powered roofing tile designed and made in Kenya.

Innovation

Innovation is one of our core principle at Strauss Energy. In a country with up to 10 months of sunshine, Strauss designs building materials that capture the sun’s rays and convert them into solar energy. 

BIPV

Building Integrated Photovoltaics or BIPV in short, is a perfect solution to the energy conundrum currently bedeviling Kenya. 

How it Works

The solar tiles work in such a way that they can produce power that can completely sustain a modern household without the need for a secondary power source..

Revolutionary Solar Roofing Tiles (BIPV Technology)

At Strauss Energy, we have pioneered the development of Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) technology in Kenya, revolutionizing how households and businesses harness renewable energy. Our solar roofing tiles offer an innovative, eco-friendly solution that integrates solar cells into standard roofing materials, providing both shelter and power generation.

Key Benefits:

  • Dual-purpose functionality: Roofing and energy generation.
  • Easy integration into both new and existing buildings.
  • Increased energy efficiency, reducing utility costs over time.
  • High aesthetic appeal, complementing modern architectural designs.

Cost-Effective Energy for Businesses and Households

Energy costs are a significant challenge for both businesses and households in Kenya. Our solar-powered roofing tiles are a cost-effective solution that addresses this problem. By tapping into Kenya’s abundant sunshine, our technology reduces dependence on expensive and unreliable electricity grids, ensuring long-term savings.

How It Works:

  • The tiles capture solar energy, converting it into electricity to power your home or business.
  • Excess energy can be stored in batteries or fed into the grid through a net metering system, generating revenue.
  • This solution not only cuts your energy bill but also contributes to environmental sustainability.
