COODSYNERGYN Oil has announced a significant milestone in its commitment to sustainable energy development in Nigeria, having signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Rural Electrification Agency (REA). The landmark agreement is set to dramatically expand energy access across the country, focusing on the deployment of clean, reliable solar and battery power solutions.
The strategic partnership outlines a comprehensive plan to deliver 20 new mini-grids and a total generating capacity of 100 megawatts (MW) of power through integrated solar and battery storage systems. This project directly supports Nigeria's national goals of expanding energy access to unserved and underserved rural communities and driving economic development through sustainable infrastructure.
Driving Nigeria’s Energy Transition
Nigeria's commitment to renewable energy is clear, with initiatives by the REA continually working to bridge the energy gap. Mini-grids, which are independent power distribution networks typically combining solar and storage, are a proven, highly effective solution for bringing reliable power to communities that are far from the main grid.
The inclusion of large-scale battery storage is a critical component of this project, ensuring that the power supply remains stable and available even after sunset. This focus on reliability addresses a key challenge in the region and guarantees consistent power for households, businesses, and essential services like health clinics and schools.
Project Highlights:
• 20 Mini-Grids: These decentralized power systems will bring reliable electricity to specific rural communities, fostering local economic growth.
• 100MW Solar + Battery Power: A massive injection of clean energy capacity, utilizing battery storage to ensure 24/7 power availability.
• National Impact: The project aligns with the Federal Government’s push to achieve universal energy access and reduce reliance on fossil fuels for power generation.
Coodsynergyn oil is proud to be a key partner in this vital national effort. This collaboration underscores our deep expertise in developing and deploying large-scale energy solutions, leveraging international best practices to deliver local impact. We look forward to working closely with the REA to see this vision through, bringing bright, sustainable energy to the heart of Nigeria.
