WattsUP Quarterly (Edition II): The era of subsidized power is officially over

July 6, 2023

In the last edition of WattsUP Quarterly, the removal of fuel subsidy was a possibility we mentioned. Right now, it is our reality and the era of any form of subsidized electricity is officially over as tariffs are set to increase by up to 30-40% from 1st July 2023.

We have done the maths and compared the running cost of a generator to a solar setup that powers a home 24/7, and from our calculations, the latter is indeed a more cost-effective, reliable and stress-free option.

Yes, we know that Solar requires high upfront capital. We make adoption easier with our financing structure that allows you to pay only 30% upfront and spread payments for up to 12 months. This covers for both new systems and upgrades.

 💡 Aspire News

We partnered with UK-based energy company to launch the enee.io monitoring solution in Nigeria. Usually, you can only monitor the entirety of a solar system, but this solution allows you to monitor individual battery performance, enabling you to detect problems much faster and extend the life of your system. 

During the launch which happened live in Lagos, there was a demonstration of how the solution works, and a session where we discussed its place in the Nigerian market.

👌 Customer Testimonial

“Getting a solar system from Aspire is probably the best decision I’ve made in a very long time”

Here’s a fun fact about Mr Somto’s purchase:

We installed his system a day before the country went on lockdown in March 2020. As a professional who works remotely, he has never had to hassle for fuel or worry about being productive at work for over 3 years now.
