Rural electrification for Plateau State: a ten-site mini-grid package
A ten-site rural electrification package underway in Plateau State, set to reach more than 16,000 connections.
The challenge
For communities off the national grid, the absence of reliable power is not an inconvenience. It sets the ceiling on everything else: how long a shop can trade, whether a clinic can refrigerate medicine, whether children can study after dark. No amount of digital ambition compensates for a place that has no dependable electricity at all.
What we are delivering
CBC Energy is delivering a ten-site rural electrification package across Plateau State under the Rural Electrification Agency (REA), designed to bring solar mini-grid power to communities the grid has never reached. Across the package, the works are set to reach more than 16,000 connections.
The approach is engineered for the conditions it has to survive: solar generation sized to real community demand, built to keep performing through Nigerian heat and sun, and delivered with the maintenance discipline that keeps a system running long after commissioning.
Where it stands
Delivery is active across the package. The model has already been proven on the ground: CBC Energy's Erinjo 2 mini-grid in Ondo State is operational and serving its community, and the same standard is being carried into Plateau at scale.
