Solar Nigeria Programme (SNP)
Project disclaimer
Description
The UK Government Department for International Development has implemented the Solar Nigeria Programme to improve the welfare outcomes of the currently underserved communities in Lagos state and Northern Nigeria by making a significant financial contribution towards the solar power electrification of public institutions, such as schools and hospitals. The intervention is expected to, by year 2020, ensure improved welfare outcomes for more than 2.8 million people using domestic solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, with 190,000 school pupils and 4.7 million clinic patients benefiting from public institutions with PV systems, create more than 3000 jobs and ensure greater effectiveness of DFID's other health and educational sector intervention in Nigeria. Solar Nigeria is funded by the UK Department for International Development (DFID), and collaborates with other donors and Nigeria's federal and state governments. The programme works directly with companies that manufacture, install, and finance solar energy systems in Nigeria. The Solar Nigeria Consumer Programme offers financial grants to capable companies that provide solar products, services and/or financing to consumers, to help rapidly expand their capacity to up-scale the market.
