An inverter and a lithium battery together cost about ₦1.63M for a 3.5kVA with 5kWh, ₦2.47M for a 6kVA with 10kWh, and ₦3.17M for a 10kVA with 15kWh, brand new in November 2026. The battery is most of the money: from 5kVA up it costs two to three times the inverter.
These are the prices most sellers ask on Jumia and Jiji, from our inverter price and lithium battery price counts, re-checked on 9 November 2026. Each inverter is paired with the battery size and voltage sellers most often sell with it.

Why the battery costs more than the inverter
The inverter turns power into the form your appliances use; the battery stores it. How long your house runs at night depends almost entirely on the battery. A 5kVA inverter with 5kWh of lithium and the same inverter with 10kWh cost about the same for the inverter, but the second runs roughly twice as long.
So decide what you want to run at night first, then size the battery, then pick the inverter that carries the biggest load you will run at once. Our guide to how many panels and batteries each inverter needs works it through.
What we sell as a pair
We sell hybrid inverters and LiFePO₄ batteries on their own, delivered in Lagos, for buyers who have an installer or want to add to a system they already have:
| Inverter | Battery | Together | Usable at night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Growatt 6kW | Aurora 10kWh | ₦2.48M | about 8kWh |
| Aurora 11kW | Aurora 15kWh | ₦3.02M | about 13.5kWh |
| SRNE 10kW | Aurora 15kWh | ₦3.67M | about 13.5kWh |
| SRNE 12kW | LVTopsun 16kWh | ₦3.82M | about 14.4kWh |
All our inverters are hybrids: panels connect straight to them, so you can add solar later without a separate charge controller.
Inverter, battery and panels, installed
An inverter and battery alone charge from NEPA or a generator. Add panels and the sun charges the battery every day, which is where the savings come from. Our installed systems include Jinko panels, inverter, LiFePO₄ battery, cabling, protection, installation and remote monitoring, from ₦4.06M:
- InfraSol 6kVA: Lite ₦4.06M (5kWh), Pro ₦4.99M (10kWh), Max ₦5.71M (15kWh)
- InfraSol 10kVA: Lite ₦6.61M (15kWh), Pro ₦8.92M (30kWh), Max ₦10.24M (30kWh)
- InfraSol 20kVA: Lite ₦13.95M (30kWh), Pro ₦18.55M (60kWh), Max ₦20.01M (60kWh)
See every size on our packages, or what installation costs across Nigeria on the solar installation cost page.
Before you buy an inverter and battery
- Ask for the battery’s kWh, not just Ah. kWh is volts × amp-hours ÷ 1,000; a 48V 100Ah battery is 4.8kWh.
- Ask for the cycle rating and warranty in writing. A good LiFePO₄ pack is rated for thousands of cycles; get the figure and the warranty years on paper.
- Check the inverter is a hybrid if you will add panels. A non-hybrid needs a separate charge controller.
- Compare three sellers. The same model can be listed at very different prices on the same day.
Two pairs at the same size can be far apart because the inverter is a different class or the battery has weaker cells or a smaller BMS. See why solar quotes differ for what to compare on paper.
