Gida Dubu community in Kano State is to benefit from uninterrupted power supply from the current testing of 1MW independent peak connected solar mini grid plant that will provide green and sustainable electricity provided by Bagaja Renewables in a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed with Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDC).
This was made known to newsmen yesterday by the project director, Sadiq Zakari, when the company’s technical team carried out the final phase of testing at its solar plant in Kumbotso local government area.
Zakari said the exercise involves evaluation of the solar infrastructure, grid connectivity and overall system reliability to ensure seamless integration and optimal performance of the infrastructure that will provide electricity supply to the residents of the community.
He added that early result from the exercise indicates a promising outcome, affirming the potential of the 1MW peak interconnected solar mini grid to provide clean, sustainable and uninterrupted power supply to the people of Gida Duhu Estate in Kano State.
Zalari said as the testing phase progresses, the company remains dedicated in addressing any challenges and optimizing the system for the benefit of the community while assuring the members of the community of timely completion and take-off of the groundbreaking project.
“The independent solar mini-grid represents a significant leap towards energy independence and environmental sustainability in Nigeria, we are committed to delivering reliable and resilient energy solutions that not only meet the community’s power needs, but also contribute to the reducing of carbon footprint and fostering economic development,” the statement added.
Bagaja renewable is the first independent 1MW peak interconnected solar grid in Nigeria whose mission is to help unlock the economic potential of communities and businesses by meeting their energy needs.
