Since lately you have made many cry their is a casting down of power supply, I also have contacted http://atlanticwastepower.com/ to Install for me a complete off grid Solar System. I will now determine how much I pay you. My happiness is in my hands!
Now I shall continually say there is a lifting up!
Una no fit fall my hand….

SOLAR POWER AS A SOLUTION TO THE ERRATIC POWER SUPPLY IN NIGERIA
Nigerians are the most creative people on earth. Nollywood is taking the movie industry by storm and our music artist are recognized the world over. We have incredible writers (Chinua Achebe), poets (Wole Soyinka) and some of the most brilliant and gifted orators in the world.
Here is your opportunity to showcase your talent.
A solar power revolution is slowly taking hold in Nigeria. Nigerians have recognized that dependency on generators or the grid is not the way to solve our power problems. For the last 40 years power generation has stood at less that 5000 MW as opposed to 100,000 MW that demand calls for.
Knowing what you do about solar power write a jingle, a line or a short song telling people why solar is one of the solutions to Nigeria’s perennial power woes. And why AWPS Renewable Energy you should chose to be your solar power provider.
Five finalists will be picked every week and the winner will be the individual that garners the most votes 5.
The weekly winner will win a N1000 recharge card and your work will be used as promotional material for the solar power industry and our company.
Good luck and happy winning

Our Client Mr. Sotonye came to our office today. He has been our client since February of 2014. For the last 8 months he has been living off the grid. He has power 24/7, does normal things, like pump water, toast bread, do laundry, power his AC, run his freezer, iron his clothes and once powered his hot water heater. He started with 1 Kw and his existing batteries and a 4 kw Inverter. He replaced his batteries with 8 Trojan L16 flooded batteries and a 60 amp MPPT charge controller.
He upgraded when he moved to Magboro. From 1 KW to 4 KW in panels. He has a diesel generator for back up on days when the sun does not shine to top up his batteries. He averages 4 hours every 2 weeks during really bad days of no or minimal sunshine.
Solar Electricity does not have to be complicated. However, becoming a PV system owner does require a basic level of understanding. This article is a good place to start.
We also offer seminars and hands-on workshops when you are ready for the next step!
Solar Electricity
When people think about alternative or renewable energy, the first image that comes to mind is often large blue or black solar panels on rooftops or portable highway signs that have a small panel attached. These solar panels, also known as photovoltaic modules (or PV modules), convert sunlight into electricity, and they have been the backbone of renewable energy for decades. The Photovoltaic Effect (how sunlight is converted into electrical energy) was discovered over a hundred years ago! Yet widespread implementation of this technology has been very gradual. Only in very recent years has photovoltaics gained wide popularity as an alternative way to produce electricity.
In 1958 the first PV modules were launched into space to power satellites. Even today, solar power is the primary source of energy at the International Space Station. On Earth as well, PV has traditionally been used in areas where there is no practical source of electrical power but there is abundant sunshine. Solar panels are often used for remote applications: like powering cabins, RVs, boats and small electronics when grid service is not available. Recently,
