Can a power grid of PV farms on rooftops power Nigeria?

The answer is Yes because it is already powering some places in the country. It will cost a lot of money initially but it is immensely cheaper than any other power source on the overall.

If the country focuses on this then not all homes will even need to have the PV farms on their roofs. All power generated will go to the grid and every consumer will buy at the same rate. There can be guaranteed power for whenever the sun is up while each consumer can also buy batteries for nightfall.

If solar is already powering hotels with ten air conditioners running as well as small factories then it can certainly power the whole country and that should be the way forward.

The production of photovoltaic cells alone will generate hundreds of thousands of jobs in the country while the power infrastructure is being built.
