InfraSol installs solar and lithium battery systems for homes and businesses in Ikeja: GRA, Allen, Opebi, Alausa, Oregun, Ogba and Maryland, and across the Ikeja Electric network, from Oshodi and Shomolu to Ikorodu and Abule Egba. Below is what supply on Ikeja Electric has looked like lately, what a system costs at each size, and how an installation runs.
Supply on Ikeja Electric this October
Even Band A has been short. Band A customers pay ₦209.50 per kWh for a promise of at least 20 hours a day. Ikeja Electric’s own notice said five Band A feeders missed that on 30 September and 1 October. The Isolo–Airport feeder in Oshodi got no supply on 30 September and 4.5 hours the next day. Feeders in Shomolu and Ejigbo got 16 to 18.5 hours.
On 5 October the company said supply was down across its network because it was getting less power from the national grid. Customers replied that they had been without light for over 160 hours. Bands B to E are promised fewer hours to begin with: 16, 12, 8 and 4 a day.
This isn’t only an Ikeja problem. A Band A feeder we monitor in Lekki Phase 1 gives about 14.5 hours a day on average, not 20. Our Band A vs solar comparison works out what that costs once the generator is counted.
Our install in Maryland
An office in Maryland was running its generator 8 to 10 hours a day to keep the lights and air conditioning on. We installed 12 kWp of panels, two 6kVA inverters in parallel (12 kVA) and 20 kWh of lithium battery, bought outright for ₦9.5M. Diesel spend went to zero, and the office now runs its cameras and network through the night. Read the full write-up.
What solar costs in Ikeja
These are our published installed prices for Lagos, Ikeja included. A 2–3 bedroom flat in Ikeja GRA usually starts at the 6kVA. A 3–4 bedroom house, or a pharmacy or small office on Allen or Opebi, is usually a 10kVA. A clinic or office now running a 20kVA generator is a 20kVA, and schools and bigger buildings take the 30 or 50kVA on the packages page.
| System | Suits | Panels | Battery | From | Full system |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| InfraSol 6kVA | 1–3 bedroom flat, shop, salon or small office in Lagos running one or two ACs | 3.7–5kWp | 5–15kWh | ₦4.06M | ₦5.71M |
| InfraSol 10kVA | 3–4 bedroom home with 2–4 ACs, or a pharmacy, mini-mart or office with fridges, in Lagos | 7.4–9.9kWp | 15–30kWh | ₦6.61M | ₦10.24M |
| InfraSol 20kVA | Duplex with 4–8 ACs, office of 15–25 staff, clinic or lab, replacing a 15–25kVA generator | 14.9–19.8kWp | 30–60kWh | ₦13.95M | ₦20.01M |
You don’t have to pay it all at once. With lease to own, you pay 30–40% down, we install, and you pay the rest over 3, 6 or 12 months. The financing page lists the monthly payment for every size. Not sure which size you need? Start from your monthly diesel and NEPA spend in the solar calculator.
Keep your meter, add solar
Solar doesn’t replace your Ikeja Electric connection. The hybrid inverter runs the house or office from the panels in the day, from the battery at night, and takes grid power when it comes, so you buy far fewer units and the generator stays off. When the feeder goes out, the inverter switches over on its own.
Buying panels only?
We sell genuine Jinko Tiger Neo 620W bifacial panels on their own, to installers and to anyone adding panels to an inverter they already have: ₦134,000 each, or ₦130,000 each by the pallet of 36. Every panel has a serial number you can check with Jinko, and delivery anywhere in Lagos is within 48 hours. See the Jinko 620W panel page, or what solar panels sell for across Nigeria.
How an installation works
- Tell us what you run. Your appliances, your area in Ikeja, and what diesel and Ikeja Electric cost you each month, on WhatsApp or the contact page.
- Site survey. An engineer measures your real load and your roof, so the system is sized for your building, not guessed from the inverter size.
- Written quote. A fixed price that names the panel brand and wattage, the battery size in kWh and the inverter model.
- Install and monitor. We install, commission and hand over the monitoring app, and our engineers watch the same data.
How to choose a solar company in Ikeja
- They survey your load and roof before they quote, instead of pricing from the inverter size.
- The quote names the panel brand and wattage, the battery chemistry and size in kWh, and the inverter model.
- They show serial numbers you can check with the manufacturer. Fake and refurbished panels are common in Lagos markets.
- The warranty terms are in writing, with who honours them in Nigeria.
- They can show you systems they have actually installed, with photos and monitoring, not stock images.
