Today, just over 60% of Nigerians have access to grid-connected electricity. Even those who do often endure erratic service. The country’s National Bureau of Statistics reports that the average daily supply stands at less than seven hours. Yet, as Albert Einstein famously said: “In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity”. In Nigeria’s case, the convergence of renewable energy, digital innovation and Software as a Service (SaaS) can establish an energy landscape built on reliability and long-term sustainability.

Nigeria and other parts of West Africa are grappling with a critical shortage of skilled professionals in the power sector. The shortage is particularly severe in technical roles that organisations need to design, implement and maintain power quality and assurance solutions. This trend poses a major challenge for powering Nigeria’s future.
