lazygal: More than sure. In my home country, the population is under 10 million. The total generating capacity of all power plants is around 8500 MW. That means that we generate, on average, 850W per citizen. here, power cuts are not longer than 10-20 minutes PER YEAR, and only for regular maintenance works. So basically, we have 24/7/365 power supply. Nigeria has a much larger population. let's say, it's around 180 million. The highest recorded production in recent years was at something between 4500 and 5000 MW, meaning that Nigeria generates 27W per citizen. That is well over 31 times less. So, in fact, my initial rough estimation was overoptimistic. Nigeria serves only around 3% of all power needs. That means that Nigeria has to increase the PRODUCTION of electric energy over 30 times to reach that level. The entirely different story is how many households have access to what was known as NEPA before. Many do not have it, so even building so many new power plants would not be enough. Nigeria has to build plants, 30 time more plants in fact, but to also build almost from scratch the power distribution network, to connect even the most distant small village to it, and to re-build existing systems which are a big mess. 2 Likes |

EnigmaticEnigma: Nigerian mechanics and electricians have not handled your electric car yet, that is why you are waxing lyrical, like this. Let those who currently use hybrid cars share their experiences with you...before you make any further comment. And the replacement cost for those batteries are rather prohibitive! It costs over 1 million naira in some cases! valarinz: You dey mind am? The pros and cons of owning an electric car are not yet known to many people. First is the shortage of skilled mechanics and 'rewires' to handle such a car, and treat it properly. Next, is the lack of stable and constant power supply in many parts of the country, which means you would have to restrict your journey to specific places, with more stable power supply. Or can you carry your 1 KW solar panel & inverter everywhere with you? That remains to be seen. Finally, the replacement cost of the battery is very high. The wahala of importing and clearing the battery is another thing. Last but not the least, how does one dispose of the faulty battery? |

abdeiz: For the past 5 years, CNG and LPG powered vehicles have not caught on, despite the abundance of gas in this country. Now, you are claiming that EV cars will work, in a country with inadequate power supply and high fuel costs? Interesting! |
