Everything you need to know about solar energy and our services.
Solar energy is renewable energy from the sun. Solar panels (photovoltaic cells) convert sunlight directly into electricity through the photovoltaic effect. When sunlight hits the solar cells, electrons are knocked loose and create an electrical current. This DC (direct current) electricity is then converted to AC (alternating current) by an inverter, making it suitable for powering your home or business.
The cost varies based on system size, quality of components, and installation complexity. Typical residential systems in Nigeria range from:

Yes! Solar panels still generate electricity on cloudy days, though at reduced capacity (typically 10-25% of peak output). Modern panels are designed to capture diffuse sunlight. For consistent power, we recommend hybrid systems with battery storage to provide power during low-sunlight periods and at night.
High-quality tier-1 solar panels (like those we install) typically last 25-30 years or more. Most manufacturers provide a 25-year performance warranty guaranteeing at least 80% output after 25 years. The inverters typically last 10-15 years and may need replacement once during the system's lifetime. With proper maintenance, your solar system can continue producing electricity for decades.
Installation timelines vary by system size:
This includes mounting, wiring, inverter installation, and commissioning. Weather conditions and site complexity may affect timing.
Most roofs are suitable for solar. Our site survey assesses:
If your roof isn't suitable, we can install ground-mounted systems or carports.
Yes! We handle all permitting and regulatory approvals as part of our turnkey service. This includes electrical inspection certificates, utility interconnection applications, and any local authority requirements. Our team ensures full compliance with national electrical codes and standards.
Connected to utility grid, no batteries. Excess power fed back to grid. Most cost-effective but no backup during outages.
Completely independent from grid. Requires batteries for 24/7 power. Ideal for remote areas without grid access.
Best of both worlds. Connected to grid but with battery backup. Provides uninterrupted power during outages. Most popular in Nigeria due to grid instability.

It depends on your system type. On-grid systems without batteries will shut down during outages for safety reasons (to prevent backfeeding electricity to the grid). Hybrid and off-grid systems with battery storage automatically switch to battery power, providing uninterrupted electricity to your home or business. This is why hybrid systems are most popular in regions with unreliable grid power.
ROI varies based on your electricity consumption and local utility rates. Typical scenarios:
With rising electricity costs across Nigeria, ROI continues improving. Many businesses see payback in under 4 years.
Yes! We offer flexible financing options including installment plans (6-24 months) and solar loans (up to 10 years). Interest rates start from 8% APR. We also partner with major banks for competitive financing. View financing options
