No fewer than 12,500 residents in five communities at the Epe axis in Lagos State would benefit from the solar mini-energy project embarked upon by the Lagos State Government; A4&T Power Solutions Limited and Ikeja Electric PLC. The groundbreaking ceremony of the interconnected solar mini-grid was done recently.

The jubilation at the event was understandable for the reason that when the 0.88MW interconnected solar mini-grid, will be completed, it will provide energy for the communities in Epe, Eredo Local Government Area of the State.

“The Lagos State Government, via its Off-Grid Electrification Strategy and Action Plan, has set a target to achieve 1GW of Solar PV generation by 2030 and collaborative efforts of players in the sector, such as being witnessed today between A4&T Power Solutions Limited, and Ikeja Electric PLC, will help to accelerate the achievement of this target.

Odusote reiterated the commitment of the Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration to supporting collaborative efforts aimed at accelerating sustainable energy access across the State as it continues to provide forward-thinking leadership and the enabling environment towards facilitating improved electricity supply for its continuously increasing populace.

The Epe mini-grid power plant will be powered by Solar and Gas, which will improve the energy mix and it is expected to benefit approximately 12,500 people while reducing tons of CO2 emissions yearly.
