Goddy Jedy-Agba
The Minister of State for Power, Goddy Jedy-Agba, will Monday pay a visit to the Jabi Lake Mall Solar Hybrid project in Jabi, Abuja.
UK company, Actis along with developer, CrossBoundary Energy (CBE), commissioned the 609kWp solar photovoltaic (PV) project a year ago. This is the first fully operational solar hybrid project for a Nigerian mall.
There are 1,848 solar PV modules located on the roof of the mall which generates approximately 850 MWh per year of electricity. Besides cutting energy costs, the solar facility will cut Jabi Lake Mall’s reliance on polluting diesel generators and will reduce carbon emissions by over 13,000 tonnes in line with the Paris agreement and sustainable development goals.
