Privatisation of Power outstandingly failed, it didn't attract investment rather it continues to rely on government intervention for stability. This is what happens why Jonathan decides to share our wealth amongst his incompetent friends. The privatisation should be revisited and reviewed.

Hahahahaha
Nigerians are we still hoping for phcn for power ?
I just installed more solar panels last week and officially disconnected phcn supply from my home. though very expensive I now enjoy 247power supply. You gata fend for yourself in this country

They have told you severally why investment is not coming in. Instead of addressing the issues ignorant folks like you continue to call names and deflect attention. The government is failing to create the necessary business friendly environment needed to privately build and operate critical infrastructure. It has squandered all the goodwill and political capital it inherited at election in 2015 that will have seen the right pricing of electricity and petroleum products by continuous denials, buck passing, deceit and politricking. Now that the reality has come and its goodwill is all squandered it cannot call for a rise in tarrifs to make electricity a proper business and cannot ask for a rise in fuel prices to make investment in refineries attractive to foreign capital.

So continue to talk rubbish you hear. Your pet government has drawn enough rope to hang itself and like I said in 2015, the best we will get is mere superficial improvements here and there. Nothing will fundamentally change in this rudderless country.

jidoex66:

Can you pls try to give a brief summary of the cost and total load. We could chat on whatsapp if you care.

Troublemaker007:


How many ba3 do you have and what’s the value of your entire solar power as of now lemme know where to start from.

6pax:


My brothers this is over three years project
I actually started small from just two batteries and 2 solar panels now I have about 10 solar and 10 batteries. I also extend the plans to my appliance by getting all energy savings within the three years.
Project cost over the three years cost over 4m.

Geometric power is ready to improve power supply to aba and it's environs but laying idle just because of some useless laws and inability of the sh*t hole leaders to do something about it.enact laws to liberalise the power sector and encourage private firms to generate electricity and where possible should distribute to people who can afford it.As long as government is still involve in power generation,they can never get it right.

Troublemaker007:


Wow! That’s a huge amount of money o. I hope it’s your personal house because if I be ur landlord I will increase your house rent to one million year Lolz.

6pax:

Yeah is really huge if you consider the cost as a whole But if you consider the cost of the project per month its less than 100k per month.
How can I have such an array of solar panels in another person's house

Now you are talking bro. I live in a 2bedroom apartment. Money nor long reach for me to build yet. Do you think it’s advisable for me to install maybe 2 ba3 inverter in someone’s house? Plus my worries is the panel. I just dey imagine say Landlord drive come one day and see panel stand for him house when I know say the house nor even get parking space for we tenants to park our cars .

Your tale of pity don't impress me.

hamzyluv:
one thing u failed to understand about Nigeria none stable electricity is just because we depend largely on crude (80%) of our national income today depends largely on the total amounts of PMS been sold per day .

Now tell me if we have 24 hours stable electricity , who is going to buy the fuel ? And how are we gonna improve our standard of living ?

My good brother the best solution to this problem is a better governance of which both Buhari and Atiku can't solve till Jesus come ..

Government needs to diversify our economic into 3 different sectors .. Northern state, provision of modern electricity through solar , Agriculture, animal Ranches/colony

Southwest. . Agriculture , major business transaction

South south . . mineral resources control , business promotion , open market

Etc ..

Then the available power supply is even enough

Must we run a grid system...its high time we dismantle the grid and regionalize power generation, transmission and distribution to meet the demographic, geographical and economic peculiarities of regions...

6pax:

Yeah, you can start with inverter b3 system then later you start adding solar panels.

bornolowu:
my brother stop being myopic..transmission was privatised not generation..let this government generate power first , den you can come here to talk shit. And I hope you know who owns Ikeja electri and BEDC!!!

The Nigerian govt doesn't believe in anything regional,that's why everything is centralized so that the parasites we be feeding on the host.

That is the restructuring we constantly advocate. In it everyone decides what he wants. Today even with privatisation the central government still controls everything through its appointed regulator so the people ultmately cannot decide on how they want a service and a product called electricity.

If we were properly structured the people at any level will decide how they want power. They can choose to pool their own generators (generating capacity), they can chose to have an investor do it for them or they can choose to have their local government do it for them via taxes, levies or bonds. They can decide for black energy or green energy. They can choose to have it run as a social service or purely as a business concern.

But what do we have. Bright and enterprising Nigerians forced into the same destiny with dumb and recalcitrant ones and not being able to do anything about it because of the rules of th game. Change the rules and see places such as Lagos and Aba take flight.

If you don't believe what usba said, then you know nothing about Nigeria's power problems. who told you pricing is the problem? let me guess, those guys that took 750 naira monthly as service charge for 3yrs yet said they have no money for pre paid meters? what pricing are you talking about? who told you refining isn't a proper business because of pricing?
You just said Buhari has squandered his 2015 political goodwill yet you suggest he gives you the kinda "pricing" that exposes you to global crude shock just to make the phantom refiners happy right? what happens to his political goodwill afterwards, you speak from both compases of your butt cheek
