🔌🏫 "Energy is a commercial product. At the same time, energy is a social service" - The Honourable Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu reaffirming the centrality of clean, sustainable energy in the nation’s economy while on a tour of the 3MW solar hybrid power plant designed to energize 50,000 students and academic staff members of the University of Abuja through the Phase II of the #EnergizingEducation Programme, funded by The World Bank.

Access to reliable electricity is essential for quality education and innovation. Through the Rural Electrification Agency of Nigeria - Nigeria Electrification Programme (NEP) we have made strides to bridge the gap in #energyaccess for Nigeria’s education sector under the #EnergizingEducationProgramme (EEP) Phase II. Sustainable energy solutions for educational institutions are more than infrastructure—they empower students, optimize research capabilities, and create thriving environments for learning and innovation. By addressing energy challenges, we directly support global goals such as #SDG4 (Quality Education) and #SDG7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) This week, the REA Management team led by the MD/CEO Abba Aliyu received the Honorable Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo A. Adelabu and conducted a pre-commissioning inspection of the 3MW solar hybrid power plant at the university of Abuja. We also paid a courtesy visit to the Ag. Vice-Chancellor of the university, Prof Aisha Maikudi to discuss the project’s impact and future sustainability and collaborations. His visit reaffirms the Federal Government’s unwavering commitment to electrifying educational institutions and positioning them as beacons of sustainable development. This inspection visit reflects our dedication to transforming educational facilities into smart hubs of progress and resilience, ensuring that no institution is left behind in our mission to power Nigeria’s future. With the #EEPII projects set to be commissioned soon, we are excited to witness the positive impact these projects will have on the educational landscape of Nigeria.

📢 FG Advances Plan to Commission 3MW Solar Hybrid Power Plant Designed to Energize University of Abuja as Minister of Power, Uni Abuja Ag. VC and REA Tour Project Site: Yesterday, the 14th of November 2024, the Honourable Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, visited the Federal University of Abuja (UniAbuja) to inspect the 3MW Solar Hybrid Power Plant, implemented by the Rural Electrification Agency (REA), under the Federal Government's Nigeria Electrification Project (NEP) - Energizing Education Programme (EEP) Phase II. Funded by The World Bank, the EEP II is catalyzing a remarkable step towards sustainable energy in education! 🌞⚡ Through the EEP II, the Federal Government remains committed to providing energy access in 7 federal universities and 2 affiliated teaching hospitals in Nigeria. The initiative aims to boost R&D, enhance academic excellence, improve learning experiences and capabilities, and foster a culture of sustainability, while positioning universities as hubs of innovation and green development in Nigeria. The power plant, constructed by EPC contractor EmOne Energy Solution, is set to revolutionize energy access at @UofANigeria. The project tour by the Honourable Minister and the REA Management team is part of the final preparations for the commissioning of EEP Phase II projects across the country. The visit included a courtesy visit to the Ag. VC of the University, Prof. Aisha Maikudi, and a tour of the 3MW power plant and distribution network power house. The Honourable Minister also commended the REA for the training and certification of 20 female STEM students and the university, by the REA, through the Agency's Gender Mainstreaming efforts. Over 350 female students have so far been trained and certified under the REA's EEP Female STEM Internship Programme till date. The Honourable Minister equally toured the fully equiped Workshop and Training Center (WTC), a key facility designed and furnished specifically to aid technical trainings, research and development in all EEP project sites. As the REA continues to drive sustainable energy solutions across the nation’s academic landscape, we are electrifying education, empowering future leaders, and paving the way for a more sustainable tomorrow. Chief Adebayo Adelabu was accompanied by: 🔹 Abba Aliyu, MD/CEO of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA). 🔹Executive Directors of the REA, including Engr Doris Uboh, Engr.

Yesterday, we proudly celebrated the incredible achievements of our second cohort of Sierra Leone STEM Trainees as they completed their training programme! Over the past eight months, these talented young women have developed essential skills, paving the way for a brighter future in the sustainable energy sector. 💡🌱  Through hands-on technical training on real-world projects, our STEM Trainees have actively contributed to SEforALL’s Powering Healthcare Programme. They have gained experience installing solar systems that will deliver reliable energy to healthcare facilities across Sierra Leone.🌞🏥  Key highlights from the graduation:   🟨 Hon. Conrad Sackey from the Ministry of Basic and Senior Secondary Education emphasized the crucial role of women in STEM for Sierra Leone's vision of becoming a middle-income country by 2030.  🟨 Mohd Absar Siddiqui from EM-ONE Energy Solutions highlighted the trainees' impactful work in the Healthcare Electrification Project. Our graduates played a vital role in bringing power to Kailahun Government Hospital and 18 community health centres.  🟨 Stefano Marguccio, SEforALL Deputy CEO, inspired the graduates by highlighting the vast opportunities awaiting them in the sustainable energy sector.   We were honored to celebrate alongside the Embassy of Iceland in Sierra Leone, with special thanks to our partners: the UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, ADC, and Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Iceland for their invaluable contribution to the Powering Healthcare Programme and STEM Traineeship Programme. As we work to bridge the gender gap in STEM and empower young women globally, we are excited to watch these graduates shape the future of energy across Africa and beyond. Congratulations to everyone! 🎉 Isatu Sesay, Haja D Turay, Esther Junisa, Mariama Jalloh, Lucy Bundu, Fatmata Bangura, Zainab Koroma, Santimaude Sesay, Rukiata Fofanah, Samuella Y., Amida Adiatu Bangura Ava Strasser, Rosemary Idem

🚨 #ICYMI | The #SierraLeone Healthcare Electrification project is expanding - now set to electrify 11 more hospitals in the country under Phase 3.    🏥 Given the impact of the solarization of 6 key hospitals in the country, including the significant reduction in diesel generator usage, we will soon commence work on the third phase of the project. In partnership with the Ministry of Health and Sanitation, EM-ONE Energy Solutions and Tetra Tech, and with support from the UK government, we will be electrifying 11 more hospitals including Lakka, Port Loko, Makeni and Kenema Government Hospitals.    ⚡ Powering Sierra Leone one health facility at a time!    #PoweringHealthcare #PoweringLivesSL #TransitioningEnergy
