Three types of solar systems — we'll recommend the right one

Every property is different. We design a system based on your energy usage, JPS situation, and budget.

Off-Grid

Off-Grid Solar Systems

Completely independent from JPS. Panels + batteries + inverter = your own private power system. No electricity bill, no outages. Perfect for rural and remote areas.

Best for: rural communities, farms, properties with no JPS connection, or areas with extremely unreliable service.

Hybrid

Hybrid Solar Systems

Solar + battery backup connected to JPS. Runs on solar during the day, batteries at night, and JPS as a backup only when batteries run low. The most popular option in Jamaica.

Best for: homes and businesses that want backup power during JPS outages while still reducing monthly bills.

Grid-Tied

Grid-Tied Solar Systems

Solar panels connected directly to JPS with net metering. Excess energy is sent back to the grid, reducing or eliminating your JPS bill. No batteries required.

Best for: properties with reliable JPS that want to reduce electricity costs with minimal upfront investment.

Why solar makes sense in Jamaica

Jamaica gets over 3,000 hours of sunlight per year — more than enough to power a complete solar system year-round.

☀️

Abundant Sunshine

Jamaica averages 8–9 peak sun hours daily — ideal for solar production year-round.

💡

Reduce JPS Bills

Jamaica has some of the highest electricity rates in the Caribbean. Solar dramatically cuts or eliminates monthly bills.

🔋

Power During Outages

Never lose power again during JPS outages — battery backup keeps your home and business running.

🌿

Clean Energy

Zero emissions, no fuel costs, no noise. Solar is the cleanest energy source available.

🏡

Increases Property Value

Solar installations increase property value in Jamaica, especially in areas where JPS service is poor.

📶

Remote Communities

For farms, rural homes and businesses far from JPS infrastructure — solar is often the only viable option.

How we design and install your solar system

From energy assessment to flipping the switch — here's exactly what happens when you work with us.

1

Free site assessment & energy audit

We visit your property, assess your energy needs by reviewing your JPS bills (or estimating usage for off-grid), evaluate roof or ground conditions for panel mounting, and take measurements.

2

System design & proposal

We design a system sized for your actual energy needs — not too big, not too small. You get a clear proposal showing system size (kW), equipment, installation cost, and estimated savings.

3

Equipment sourcing & scheduling

We source your panels, inverter, batteries and mounting hardware. Once equipment arrives we schedule your installation at a time that works for you.

4

Professional installation

Our team installs the mounting structure, panels, wiring, inverter and batteries. All work is done safely and to standard. Most residential systems are completed in 1–2 days.

5

Commissioning & handover

We commission the system, test all components, configure your monitoring app, and walk you through how everything works. You leave knowing how to get the most from your system.

6

Ongoing maintenance & support

We offer maintenance plans and are available for support after installation. Regular cleaning and checkups keep your system performing at maximum efficiency.

Common questions about solar in Jamaica

Everything you need to know before going solar.

Cost depends on system size and type. A basic 3kW hybrid system for a home typically starts around JMD$500,000–700,000 installed. A larger 5–10kW system for a business will be more. We provide free site assessments and detailed quotes — call (876) 919-6046 to get started.
Most residential solar installations are completed in 1–2 days. Larger commercial installations may take 3–5 days. The process from first contact to installation typically takes 1–3 weeks depending on equipment availability.
Absolutely — this is exactly what off-grid solar is designed for. If you're in a remote community in Westmoreland, Hanover or anywhere in our coverage area without reliable or accessible JPS service, an off-grid system can power your entire home or business from solar and batteries alone.
With a properly sized system, most Jamaican homeowners reduce their JPS bill by 70–100%. Results depend on your energy consumption, system size, and how much of the day you use power. We calculate expected savings during your free site assessment.
Yes — solar panels produce power even on cloudy days, just at reduced output (typically 10–25% of peak capacity). Jamaica's annual sunshine averages are high enough that systems are designed to account for cloudy periods.
Yes — we sell panels, inverters, batteries, charge controllers and accessories to contractors and individuals who want to do their own installation. Call (876) 919-6046 or email info@lignumtechservices.com for pricing on equipment.
