Nigeria, Abuja October 2022: Over 14,000 students studying at the University of Abuja will soon gain a higher quality of education thanks to the supply of affordable, reliable and sustainable energy. EM-ONE will build an advanced 3.1 MWp PV and 2.03 MWh storage microgrid at the university’s campus to make this possible. The project will be completed by December 2023.

This project is made possible by Nigeria’s Rural Electrification Agency (REA) and the Nigeria Electrification Project (NEP), Energizing Education Phase II. It is funded by the World Bank.
