    We design, supply and install solar and lithium battery systems for homes and businesses across Lagos, from a 6kVA flat to a 50kVA commercial site. Installed prices run from ₦4.1M to ₦48.4M, and every one is published below. Here is what an installation includes, how it runs from first message to handover, and pictures of systems we have built.

    What a solar installation includes

    • Panels: Jinko Tiger Neo 620W, with serial numbers you can check with Jinko, on racking fixed to your roof.
    • Inverter: a 48V hybrid (Growatt, SRNE or Aurora) that runs the house from the panels, the battery or NEPA, and switches between them automatically.
    • Battery: LiFePO₄ lithium, sized for your nights, not for the inverter.
    • Everything between them: cabling, breakers, surge protection and the connection into your distribution board.
    • Remote monitoring: an app showing what the panels, battery, grid and house are doing, which our engineers watch too.

    How an installation works

    1. Tell us your load. What you run, when, and what diesel and NEPA cost you now, on the quote form or WhatsApp. Skip anything you’re not sure of.
    2. Site survey. An engineer measures your real load and your roof, so the system is sized for your site, not a guess.
    3. Written quote. A fixed price for the system, with outright, lease-to-own and monthly options side by side.
    4. Install and monitor. We install, commission and hand over the app, then watch the same data you do.

    What solar installation costs in Lagos

    Installed prices, November 2026. "From" is the starter version of each size, with less battery or fewer panels (the lower figure in each range), which you can add to later. Every price includes panels, inverter, LiFePO₄ battery, cabling, protection, installation and remote monitoring.

    Every version priced, with deposits and monthly payments, is on our solar panel installation cost page.

    Homes usually take a 6kVA to 20kVA system; schools, hotels, clinics and other commercial sites, 30 or 50kVA. Which one fits your house is worked out in the Lagos sizing guide, or start from your monthly diesel and NEPA spend in the solar calculator.

    You don’t have to pay at once. Lease-to-own is 30–40% down and the balance over 3, 6 or 12 months, and businesses can take Energy as a Service with no upfront payment. Every option is on the financing page.

    Where we install

    Across Lagos: Lekki, Ikoyi and Victoria Island, Ikeja, Maryland, Surulere and Gbagada, and in Abuja, where the Abuja installation page shows the systems we have built there. On Ikeja Electric? The Ikeja installation page covers supply there and our Maryland install. In Lekki or Ajah, the Lekki installation page covers Eko Electricity supply, our Lekki home and office, and solar for flats.

    Warranties

    The panels carry Jinko’s 12-year product and 30-year performance warranties. Our lithium batteries carry 6 to 7 years from the manufacturer, and the inverters their manufacturer’s warranty. You get the serial numbers and datasheets before you pay.

    How to choose a solar installer in Lagos

    • 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.
    • You can see the system working afterwards, on a monitoring app, without calling them.
