6 FAQs about [Nigeria recently completed a photovoltaic power generation system for a communication base station]

Can solar power transform the Nigerian telecommunication industry?

Companies such as Airtel, Glo etc believe that the solar powered cellular base stations are capable of transforming the Nigerian communication industry due to their low cost, reliability, and environmental friendliness. Currently, there are several research efforts directed on the use of solar power in the Nigerian telecommunication industry.

Could solar power a large swathe of Nigeria?

Given that Nigeria has tremendous solar energy potential as Africa’s largest economy, solar could reliably power large swathes of the country, if not the entire country.

How many solar projects are there in Nigeria compared to South Africa?

However, according to the International Renewable Energy Agency’s (IRENA) July 2020 report, titled “Renewable Energy Statistics 2020”, Solar projects in Nigeria had only 28 MW of solar PV generation capacity installed by the end of 2019, compared to South Africa’s 3,061 MW (Top 10 largest solar PV project in South Africa).

Are solar home systems a good idea in Nigeria?

Therefore, solar home systems are uncommon and sizable solar installations are for commercial and Industrial (C&I) consumers who want to reduce heavy reliance on costly diesel generators. See below the full table with the 10 largest solar projects in Nigeria. Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi. Nigerian Breweries Plc. 1.

Should Nigeria adopt a PV/DG system?

In 2019, another PV/DG system proved to be a more considerable system that should be adopted in Nigeria as opposed to an on-grid system suggested in because most base stations in Nigeria run almost totally on diesel generators because of the power supply problem in Nigeria.

Where is a solar PV-hybrid plant located in Nigeria?

The off-grid, solar PV-hybrid plant is located on the campus of FUNAI, Benue State, in the North Central part of the country. The project is the largest of the solar projects in Nigeria. The project was executed by the Rural Electrification Agency (REA) under the Energizing Education Program (EEP) of the federal government.
