Ø  Though electricity is a necessity for rural dwellers, it is almost impossible to extend the grid to all rural areas of the nation. This leaves a majority of Nigerians who live in the rural areas without access to electricity Ø  Providing access to electricity through alternative energy means is a technology of necessity for Nigeria Ø  Fortunately, Nigeria is endowed with abundant natural resources, like the sun, wind, hydros, etc.

Ø  As an alternative energy, solar and wind power generation will be a practical alternative to supplementing electricity supply in Nigeria

Complements President’s Power Sector Reforms (cont.): Ø  Solar   and/or   wind   powered   electricity   will   be   cost-­‐effecRve   in   areas  

where   electricity   can   not   be   supplied,   especially   in   the   rural,   riverine  and  areas  remote  to  current  grid/energy  sources  such  as  water  falls  

 Ø    Electrifying   Nigeria   will   be   a   source   of   economic   and   social  development  in  Nigeria  that  will  improve  ciRzens  quality  of  life,  and  bring  about  developments  akin  to  telecommunicaRons  

 Ø  It  will   curb  urban  migraRon,   create   full   employment  opportuniRes  and   reduce   crime,  which  will   translate   into   providing   a   conducive  poliRcal  environment  in  our  naRon’s  polity

Ø It will spur SMEs that use electricity for longer hours of operation/productivity, increase agriculture productivity - modern machinery/farming methods that use electricity, increase rural dwellers’ income/productivity, improve access to information by rural dwellers: TVs, Cell phones, internets, etc., improve educational achievements/enlightenment , promote extended learning hours and improve household activities and social gathering/interactions after dark

Ø Electricity generation by alternative/renewable energy reduces environmental pollution, and fits into European Union (EU) member states framework for co-operation with Nigeria Ø It is in-line with Nigerian Economic and Power Sector Reform Program (EPSERP)

LIGHT UP NIGERIA STRATEGY: Ø  Establish LIGHT UP NIGERIA Program and identify pilot target communities, within about 30% of the 774 LGAs (232 LGAs), currently assumed to have no access to grid-connected electricity, to directly apply micro-off grid solar or wind powered electricity generation to light up homes/streets of communities

Ø  For each targeted community, set up a local organizing committee comprising of the LGA Chairman, local councilor, Chief, and two members chosen from the community of interest by the locals

Ø  Plan modifications and deliverable power products; energy efficient lighting systems to light up homes, streets, and community centers in remote communities with no access to power resources

Ø  For each targeted community, provide solar or wind powered energy efficient lighting systems to the consumer needs, accompanied by functional specifications and approximate cost per kilowatt of solar power provided

   LIGHT  UP  NIGERIA

18

LIGHT UP NIGERIA MARKET NEED AND MARKET SIZE: Ø  Light up Nigeria program can address a large potential power/electricity market need of tens of trillion Naira in Nigeria Ø  It can be an attractive investment to foreign investors – governments, institutions, system integrators, and companies with large-scale rapid and stable power requirements Ø  Potential sales revenue from the establishment of the program can reach more than 200 billion Naira within three years of its establishment Ø  Feasibility of the program can be fully and rapidly demonstrated, given the abundance of sun or reasonable wind speed in Nigeria, and availability of commercial-Off-the-shelf (COTS) LED energy efficient lighting systems, the commercial provision of solar or wind powered lighting systems can commence immediately, within a month of its establishment

   LIGHT  UP  NIGERIA

19

CAPITALIZATION STRATEGY:

Ø  Capitalization invested in the Light-up Nigeria program will be utilized to:

Ø  Establish the Light-up Nigeria program in 232 (about 30% of 774) LGAs assumed to have no grid connections Ø  Award contracts to Private Partners to Light-up Nigeria Ø  Monitor Light-up Projects, Facilities and Equipment Ø  Acquire Personnel in each of the selected LGAs Ø  Assist in training locals in the design, development, optimization and integration of wind turbines or solar arrays for targeted communities Ø  operate the day-to-day running of the entire Light-up Nigeria Program

   LIGHT  UP  NIGERIA

20

Ø  With global rush to reduce oil consumption worldwide, establishment of the Light-up Nigeria Program is a step in the right direction Ø  It will offer an enormous potential for future exportation of electricity from alternative/renewable energy to other neighboring African countries Ø  Lighting up the rural areas of Nigeria will be of immense benefit to the country, socially, economically and politically Ø  LIGHT-UP NIGERIA Program will impact the nation’s power supply bottom line
