Kogi State 5-Site Solar Mini-Grid Cluster

Technical site leadership for a five-site solar mini-grid deployment in Kogi State, coordinating generation-site activities, LV distribution implementation, customer connections, metering, commissioning, and field quality improvement across multiple communities.

Engineering Scope

Technical work and responsibilities

  • Supervise generation-site construction activities including PV installation, electrical balance-of-system works, cabling, earthing and equipment installation.

  • Review field implementation against approved designs and resolve construction issues across generation, distribution and customer connection workstreams.

  • Coordinate LV distribution activities including network corrections, customer wiring verification, smart metering installation and earthing implementation.

  • Support technical inspections, NEMSA assessment readiness, commissioning activities and project handover documentation.

  • Provide technical guidance to local operators after commissioning and support operational readiness.

Delivery Outcomes

Verified project results

  • Supported successful completion and commissioning of five mini-grid sites across Kogi State.

  • Supported electrification of 2,000+ homes, businesses and productive-use customers.

  • Improved construction quality through field verification, snag identification, corrective actions and design compliance checks.

  • Supported final technical acceptance activities including inspection preparation and operator training.
