On this electricity issue in Nigeria,
I will be realistic again.
Nigeria will not see steady power in at least 10 years. normally should be at least 15 years
It is unfixable under a decade. Even Albert Einstein with the execution of Elon Musk will not do it under 10 years.
Its a harsh truth
Don't argue this with your emotions and ideal plans, argue with data. if you don't even know where NBET stands in the chain, you cannot make an argument here, pass.
So is solar the solution for Nigeria? YES
Is solar realistic for mass adoption? NO. Because of cost.
The solution to this may be
- The govt. removing any charge, tax, levy, etc on anything relating to panels and batteries.
- Startups launching solar farms and buyback businesses
- Govt. funding battery and storage research that will lead to low cost in that regard
- One day national flogging of all Nepa officials with koboko and swearing for them if need be
If you understand the energy industry in Nigeria, you will know that Nepa or whatever you know them as now, is not giving you steady supply for a lonnnnnnnngggg time
