According to the Agasa News, there is an 83% shortfall between demand and supply of grid electricity in Lagos state, amounting to 33 TWh to 43 TWh. The article mentioned that rooftop solar is one of the potential solutions being considered to bridge this gap.
Conclusions We find that installing solar-battery systems reduces the reliance on backup generators in Lagos's households with poor grid reliability. In turn, the addition of the solar-batter systems reduces fuel consumption, which is expensive and polluting when burnt.
Annual electricity generated from backup generators is estimated to be 7–20 Terawatt-hours of electricity annually ( Farquharson et al., 2018a; IFC, 2019 ), which is between 20 and 60 % of total on-grid electricity generation in 2015. Generator ownership among Nigerian households is estimated to be 11 million in 2018 ( A2EI, 2019 ).
Our analysis shows that solar-battery systems are economically profitable for households who rely on their backup generators to ensure at least 8-h of reliable service daily.
We developed a techno-economic model to simulate the performance of residential solar-battery systems as a means of reducing the reliance on backup generators in grid connected households in Lagos, Nigeria.
For households installing the solar-battery systems to supplement (but not replace) their backup generators (GD-PB), our results show that the solar battery system would provide an average of 665 kWh/year in Tier 1 (4 h/day) and rise to 4,512 kWh/year in Tier 6 (24 h/day).
