I wish to assure Nigerians of our commitment to making solar technology more affordable and accessible across the country.
Regarding the proposed ban on the importation of solar panels, I wish to clarify that the restriction will not take effect until local production capacity is sufficient to meet Nigeria’s domestic demand.
At the Federal Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology, we are working to attract global leaders in solar technology to invest in Nigeria through technology transfer, local manufacturing, skills development and the training of Nigerian professionals. These efforts will strengthen local capacity, create jobs and ensure that Nigerians have access to affordable solar solutions and reliable technical services.
This vision aligns with the broader energy transformation agenda of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, under the Renewed Hope Agenda. By leveraging grid electricity alongside clean energy solutions, including solar photovoltaic technology, we aim to support industrialisation, expand energy access and improve the quality of life of our citizens.
Our goal is clear: to build local capacity, encourage investment and ensure that the benefits of solar technology are within the reach of ordinary Nigerians.
