Solar power is energy harnessed from the sun’s rays. Solar panels convert sunlight into electricity that can power homes, businesses, and devices. It’s a renewable and clean energy source, meaning it doesn’t run out and produces minimal environmental pollution compared to fossil fuels.

Yes, solar power is right for you! Nigeria has abundant sunlight throughout the year, which is ideal for generating solar energy. Given the frequent power outages, solar power can provide a reliable and independent electricity source, reducing reliance on the grid and helping lower electricity costs over time. With Nigeria’s sunny climate, you can maximize solar panels’ efficiency and enjoy a more stable power supply.

The main limitations of solar power are:

  1. Nighttime Inefficiency: Solar panels only generate electricity when exposed to sunlight, so they don’t produce energy at night. This requires a backup solution, such as batteries to store daytime power or a connection to the grid.

  2. Convertibility and Efficiency: Solar panels convert sunlight to electricity, but not all sunlight is efficiently converted. Factors like panel quality, shading, and positioning affect how much sunlight is turned into usable power, which can limit output.

With a solar battery, you can store excess energy generated during the day, ensuring reliable power is available at night and during cloudy period.

It depends. Many customers switch completely to solar and use their existing diesel generators as for backup while expanding battery capacity. Others who get a reasonable level of  public power supply use solar as a backup to regulate costs, especially during the day, with lower battery requirements
