A vision seen as early as 2021...
The energy trade market today in nigeria is finally blooming...
Early but definately growing.

Love to see it ❣️

[spirit (-e/acc) @ciphertoone]

Solar owners in Nigeria, let me tell you something nobody is talking about.

You spent ₦3M–₦8M on panels, inverter, battery. You're generating 15–20kWh a day. Your house uses maybe 8–10kWh. The rest? It sits in your battery until it's full. Then your charge controller just… stops. Your panels are literally cooking in Lagos sun producing power that goes NOWHERE.

Meanwhile, the neighbor next door is spending ₦5,000/day on fuel. The tenant upstairs is rationing between charging her phone and running a fan. The shop across the street closes shop by 4pm because they don’t have gen.

You have surplus power. They have unmet demand. There's a 10-metre cable between you. But there's no system to meter it, bill for it, or make it safe.

That's what @tspowergrid is.

We built the missing layer- a smart metering hub that sits between your solar system and your neighbors. It tracks every kilowatt-hour. Neighbors top up via WhatsApp/Telegram. You set your own price. ₦150/kWh, ₦200/kWh- whatever makes sense for your street. Earnings hit your dashboard in real time.

Here's the full picture:

THE HOST (you): You own the solar system. You install our Gateway Hub. You become a micro-utility. You earn ₦80K–₦150K/month from 3–5 neighbors.

THE NEIGHBOR: They get cheaper power than petrol gen (₦200/kWh vs ₦330+/kWh for fuel). No capital outlay. No generator maintenance. No noise. No fumes. They just tap and pay.

THE HUB: Our hardware smart meters at each connection point. It measures generation, consumption, battery state, and billing. All data flows live to our cloud platform.

THE PLATFORM: Real-time dashboard. Earnings tracking. Neighbor management. Wallet top-ups. Withdraw to bank. This is the actual business. We're not a solar company. We're a platform company. Solar is just how hosts get onboarded.

THE BILLING: Prepaid wallet system. Neighbor loads ₦2,000 via WhatsApp. Meter deducts as they consume. When wallet hits zero, power pauses. No arguments. No "I'll pay you later." No awkward conversations.

Now let me address the FEAR:

NEMSA just released new guidelines because fire incidents from solar installations are INCREASING across Nigeria. Battery explosions. Inverter overheating. Bad wiring. Mixing old and new batteries. No BMS on lithium setups. Kano's Singer Market burned twice in two weeks- solar battery explosion suspected. ₦5 BILLION in damage.

This happens when there's no monitoring. No management system. No one watching the data.
Our hub monitors your system 24/7. Battery temp. Charge cycles. Load distribution. Fault alerts go straight to your phone via the web app. This is what "managed solar" means. Not just install and pray.

THE BUSINESS MODEL:

If you don't have solar → Full Stack package. ₦6M, 5kW system, 3-month installment. Panels, inverter, lithium battery, gateway hub, meters for 3 neighbors, installation, 12-month warranty.

If you already have solar → Upgrade Kit. ₦800K+. We add the metering layer, connect your neighbors, and you start earning in days.

We take a 5% platform fee on transactions. That's it. You keep 95% of what your neighbors pay.

IBPM installers, solar companies, estate managers- we're not competing with you. We're giving your customers a reason to say yes faster. "This system pays for itself" is the most powerful sales line in solar. We make it true.

This is not a concept. The platform is live. Data loop is working. First Lagos pilot is being installed.

Be your own Power Grid.

@bigbrovar If you want to go solar, this is the best place to join. There's a lot of peer to peer knowledge exchange to make sure you have the adequate knowledge before spending any money. You'll do solar and you'll do it right.

Welcome to the generator economy.

[gst @wearegst]

Instant noodles make people thirsty mainly because they are very high in sodium (salt).

Sodium increases the concentration of particles in your blood, so your body tries to balance it by pulling water out of your cells. This triggers your brain’s thirst response, making you want to drink more water to dilute the excess salt and restore fluid balance.

[GDEE🤓 @GDEE__]

Their C rating gets ignored often in designs, this contributes massively to the short 12-18months lifespan.

customers, with proper design use, tubular for 4years+ with acid top ups.

All in all the energy density is the biggest draw back thus the move to lithium.

[Adewale Adetugbo @aadetugbo]

this is a common setup that is illegal (yes) in the UK, South Africa and UAE to name a few

does not meet the relevant safety standards and guarantees you replacing the batteries in 12 to 18 months because they are not being properly charged

Asides capital required for electrification, transparency is required within the value chain.

Blockchain is immutable, utility payments that pass through our meters are traceable. No middleman collection...the core problem has always been transparency

[Somto Okonkwo @General_Somto]

“Nigeria’s Power System Isn’t Adding Up. Power Generation Companies Are Drowning In N6.8 Trillion Debt, Yet Millions Of Nigerians Pay Distribution Companies Through Prepaid Meters And Estimated Billing. We Pay, But The Money Shrinks Before It Reaches The Power Producers. Now, Over 16 Plants Are Down. How Did We Get Here?🤦🏾‍♂️”.~ Financial Analyst.

[The Last Son of Krypton @lifeofdanel]

14+ days, no single supply from the grid. If I was buying 10 litres daily (1300/l) just to get about 10 hours of light for these 14 days, that is already 182k in just 2 weeks.

[GDEE🤓 @GDEE__]

That is one way of looking at it.
Another way is that solar would shed loads of the grid, allowing it to focus more on a smaller market( hopefully reducing stress and increasing uptime).

[Temi @_SuperPiz]

Industries are already going off grid, and many middle income households are alternating with solar. If the electricity situation doesn’t improve, more middle income earners will fully switch.

Discos will lose its biggest paying customers and
Discos’ revenue shrinks, leaving the system weaker and tariffs higher for those still connected. These are things that might affect the industry if nothing is done.

Entitlement comes more easily than we think.

I was traveling on Friday, and my car's air conditioning started acting up in Tema traffic. Luckily, there was an AC guy on that stretch, and I stopped for him to take a look. He took out the filter, cleaned it, topped up the gas, and everything was fine.

When I asked him what he wanted, he quoted an outrageous amount because he saw the car and my gadgets. I did the same for a smaller car last year, and it was much cheaper.

I opened my MoMo wallet and showed him all I had. I would have had to borrow money to pay him, and I was traveling. He realized at that moment that he couldn't extort me and agreed to a lower and more reasonable amount.

As I left, I wondered why he felt entitled to more, since he believed I had more to give, and realized I was guilty of the same thing. I have a client on a quarterly retainer. He approached me; I didn't approach him, and we worked together for a few quarters, for which he was very grateful.

He is now doing very well and has missed a few meetings, all paid in advance. I initially thought of charging more, since he was now making more, but stopped myself when I realized it was entitlement.

Thinking that I was the reason for his success and looking for more is entitlement. If his success brings more work my way, I can charge more. I shouldn't charge just because he is making more.

Pricing for services is a nebulous area when there are no baselines and measurement standards. It is easier when you create standards and stick with them. I have done advisory work on percentages and on time. It is funny that the work I did on a time basis provided much more value to the clients, yet I still had to maintain my standards.

When there are standards, the risk of feeling entitled is greatly diminished. The customer knows what they are paying for, and you know what to expect in payment. Getting them to come back means going above and beyond their expectations. This is why I have a 98% repeat booking rate for consultations. The other 2% I am still trying to win back again without feeling entitled.

For the past few years, we have been building a smart meter at @whyNotSwitch that allows solar RWAs to have a play in this.

Last year we onboarded > 20 solar projects in Nigeria onchain.

watch this space in the coming weeks.

@misterezeh @MentusNnaemeka @Nobsdaslushhkid @OfficialBenKalu True true ...
Because in actual use case...a 10kva inverter wouldn't power a 10kw load...

Solar systems should be rated in KVA whenever refering to the inverter capacity... The importance can't be stressed enough
🤔

[GDEE🤓 @GDEE__]

@misterezeh @MentusNnaemeka @Nobsdaslushhkid @OfficialBenKalu Great comment
I've widely seen solar system references in the kws not KVA...even minigrids...
I feel it's cause less load characteristics plays out as compared to the national grid ...thus the impedance effect is far less...

🤔 Interesting topic
