ECN DG Inspects Ongoing Solarization Project For Provision Of Alternative Energy Source

Posted on June 3, 2026

The Director-General and Chief Executive Officer of the Energy Commission of Nigeria (ECN), Dr. Mustapha Abdullahi, yesterday inspected the ongoing Solar Mini-Grid installation project at the Commission’s headquarters. 
The inspection forms part of the Commission’s efforts to advance sustainable energy deployment and demonstrate leadership in the adoption of renewable energy technologies.

Accompanied by the Commission’s directors, the Director-General assessed the progress of the project and commended the quality of work being delivered by the service provider and project vendor. The Commission’s management also expressed confidence in its decision to adopt LONGi solar technology for the project, citing the company’s reputation for manufacturing high-performance, reliable, and industry-leading solar photovoltaic modules that meet international quality standards.

Upon completion, the off-grid solar photovoltaic (PV) system will provide uninterrupted power to the Commission’s headquarters, enabling the facility to operate independently off the national grid. This milestone further reinforces the Commission’s commitment to supporting the Renewed Hope Agenda of Bola Ahmed Tinubu through the promotion of clean, reliable, and sustainable energy solutions.

The project underscores the Commission’s dedication to energy security, environmental sustainability, and operational efficiency. It is also expected to serve as a model for the deployment of renewable energy systems across public institutions and other sectors of the Nigerian economy.

The Commission remains steadfast in its mandate to drive innovative energy initiatives that support Nigeria’s transition to a cleaner, greener, and more resilient energy future.
