Sura Independent Power Project Commissioning
The Vice President of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, commissioned the 1.5MW independent power project at the Sura Market, Lagos Island in October 2018. The project was staged to provide 24 hours of stable power supply to businesses around the market using off-grid electricity solutions.
This power project at Sura Shopping Complex was built by Solad Power Holdings, an Independent Power Provider (IPP), as part of the Federal Government’s Energizing Economies Initiative (EEI) policy being implemented by the Rural Electrification Agency (REA). The Sura Market Complex currently has about 1,047 shops which are all connected to this new power project.
