The problem is, these subsides are why the sector cannot make enough of a profit to fix things.

Also, budgeting subsides is one thing, whether the subsides can cover the losses made by selling power below production cost, and by produiction cost rising over the year is another thing.

Remember, this is what government is paying for 2024, If cost of gas shoots up this year, the 1.6 trillion might not be enough to cover it. Also, oil prices may drop, and the money may not be there.

Finally, subsides are paid for by tax in developed countries, and are not given to everyone. In Nigeria, we pay for it from oil money, which from the word go is not enough for all of us, plus our tax to gdp is too low to pay for subsides.

There is nothing like cost reflective tarrif if my consumption is on estimate. They should start from letting us have choice of getting our metres in open market just like our phones, they can even determine products that are compatible, marketers should source for it and sell.
My community is not having transformer since Oct, they were still sending bills, I sent a mail to them to put a stop to it, no response. I've always been sending mails to the email and do get response, but they have refused to give a response to this

Ideally, it is the job of the local DISCO, not the job of PHCN. PHCN does not exist. Discos and gencos and TCN have replaced it.

But as to why consumers contribute...this one is easy.




Meanwhile, GSM companies, if the antenna spoil, dem go replace am. Your local provision store owner, if he runs out of milk today, he will replace it within a few hours, if not tomorrow latest....because they are allowed to do something the power sector is not allowed to do. Sell at market price.


This is the result of not letting DISCO set prices.....you will be asked to contribute for your generator.


/b]. Not this one where we pretend power is cheap, and where in some areas half the population thinks it is free of charge. Ok o.

Where did you install your panels?

Boss, see the This advert. for inverter

Then buy this panel from fouani //fouanistoredotcom/ng/en/product/jinko-475w-monofacial-solar-panel N148K X 3 #444,000

you get balance of #1,260,000 to buy battery if it is LIFEPO4 battery, you can add more later, also the panel you can add later

Due to your battery and panel capacity, you can only watch TV use energy saving bulbs like 5 and Rechargeable Fans, laptop and phone charging.

With 135k he can get Xtra power 555w panels or 555w longi panels for 150k

Thought they said lithium iron phosphate (LFP) does not catch fire nor explode?

bassdow:
ah
That's good. As for keep an eye on input voltage, that's very simple. Just don't go above what's stated on your charge controller. I only suggested using PWM since they're much cheaper and I havve a spare I might never hence willing to use it for experiment.

Thanks confirming it workks. when I get time, I go do something

Elcapitan0:
Hello guys and good evening. Pleasei just installed my felicity CC and i'm having trouble connecting it to the inverter. I'm using a normal network cable and I've tried both the RS-232 and the RS-485 port on the inverter but it just flashes for 10 seconds and goes off. Please how can i go about this as i dont want to overcharge this battery if both AC and panel is available?
Inverter is IVPS3524
Charge controller is SCCM8048

Thanks

If we had to implement such a project today, we would not believe in our capacity to do it.

We would be looking for China or Julius Berger to do it, and we would be ready to pay them billions of dollars.

Such is the damage that colonial rule did to our sense of confidence in our capacity as a people.

This wall was built long before the Industrial Revolution of the 18th century.

They did not use any machines at all (at least none that we know of. Maybe they invented something they used, who knows? Do we research our history?)

But today, if we want to build a COMMON RAILWAY LINE, we call the Chinese.

We want to build an expressway, we call Julius Berger.

We want to build an airport or shopping mall, we call China.

I mean, we need to snap out of it, and become MEN again.

Just like our illustrious ancestors.

Hello Everyone,

biko who can suggest an affordable solar system that can power a 32 inch TV, 2 16-inch standing fans, a decoder, and charging outlets for phones and laptop.

I would like to know you guys suggestion on a price range & b3 power capacity i should be expecting.

I browsed out Bluetti solar power gen uploaded below which seems expensive for the few gadgets I mentioned I will like to power and I don't even know how reliable it is.

yemi2plus:
Thank you brother.

Actually, I am considering going for lithium batteries. This is the set up I have in mind:

1. 3.5KVA 24V hybrid inverter
2. (2) 200ah 24V lithium batteries
3. OR (4) 100ah 12V lithium batteries

I am now stucked decising on what brand of inverter to go for. I am thinking between Sorotec and Felicity.

Any recommendations on a good inverter is highly appreciated.

yemi2plus:
Thank you for your input.

To be very honest with you, aside your first paragraph, I got more confused reading the following paragraphs. I am a newbie and relying on the information on this thread to make a decision.

Boss abeg this oversizing matter pls I need some explanation.

3KW INVERTER SETUP + SOLAR

1. 3Kw 24volt Hybrid inverter = #240,000

2. 12v 200Ah battery 4pieces = #150,000 x 4 = #600,000

3. 270watts solar panels 9pieces = #55,000 x 9 = #495,000

4. Solar mounting rails on roof and its accessories = #36,000

5. DC & AC Cables = #85,000

6. AC & DC breaker, changeOver, trunking, AVS, breaker box, AC & DC Surge, PV combiner Box = #50,000

7. Logistics to site = #30,000 within Lagos

8. Installation = #60,000

TOTAL = #1,596,000 Is this not a outrageous quote? Please 🙏 help as this is the quote by my installer

I'm always mystified how/why motorized setups never took off for small dish installations in this country.

I guess the technical limitations are an issue

kd10:
@ Microgiant " I have chosen the last option you suggested because my 4922A decoder is not fried rather the issue here is that i Mistakenly did a Factory Reset that wiped away all my setup clean leaving the decoder empty without any interface functionality so when i on it , it will display the normal Strong Logo but no interface menu table/Settings to work with and that's the problem am facing so not a dead decoder. So i have use a Clean USB Drive to download the Software of [28/8/2016 & 21/11/2016 ] both Software contains Sat Frequency/Channel list then i will upgrade it using the Option 2 Usb Method you suggested. If it works i will inform the the house because currently am on a travel so the decoder is not with me but if there's any other suggestion i will be glad to take it. Thanks alot sir.

Hello people. I have the following for sale:

9 x 335w Yingli (Black cell) Solar Panels. I purchased the panels exactly 3 years ago (November 2019) from Yingli directly from Yingli's office at Allen Road Ikeja. I used them personally for my home setup. The panels are in good shape and the reason for selling is due to an upgrade to my system. I am upgrading to a higher-capacity setup.

I kept online logs and records of my solar setup so you can actually see the historical performance of the panels (3kw total power) on my solar monitoring dashboard here http://energy.openculture.org.ng:8080/dashboard/view?id=48 (The panels are still in use as I write this)

The highest performance I ever recorded from the array is 3241w and this was sometime this year. (Screenshot attached)
The total price I am selling the array is 450k at the cost of 50k each. I intend to sell them all in one go.

Location is in abuja and logistics would be handled by the buyer.



The panels are in great shape.

Sold off.

isangjohnson:
The major issue is the logistics as I'm not in Abuja.
I would've loved to have them in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State Capital.

davodyguy:
No local movies or any entertainment channel.

A serious organization would not do this, prioritizing sport (football) over movies/entertainment.

They're not serious at all

I'm still wondering why some people would want a WhatsApp group away from the community that is on this platform, I have some thought about their intention but I hope I am wrong.

can I reference any previous discussion from these various WhatsApp group if I join today? your answer should be a closure on this matter
