Commercial Solar Installation for Nigerian Businesses — Without the Reseller Tax
Diesel prices doubled. Reseller markups didn't budge. Olasupo Energy cuts both out — we qualify your facility, match you to a vetted installer, and check their numbers before you sign anything.

Diesel Was Always Expensive. Now It's Unsustainable.
When the federal government removed the fuel subsidy, diesel didn't just get pricier — it broke the math a lot of Nigerian businesses had been running on for a decade. Generators that used to feel like a manageable overhead now show up as one of the biggest line items on the P&L, right behind rent and payroll.
Solar fixes the economics permanently, but most business owners we talk to have already tried to get a quote and given up — three installers, three wildly different numbers, no way to tell which one is honest. That gap between "solar makes sense" and "I trust this quote" is exactly where Olasupo Energy operates.

If Your Business Runs on Diesel, We've Probably Solved This
We don't do home solar, and we don't spread ourselves across a dozen unrelated services. Every facility type below has different load patterns and a different definition of "right-sized" — which is why we treat each one separately instead of selling one generic system to everybody.
Factories & Manufacturing
100kw to 5MW systems built around production schedules, not guesswork.
Hotels & Hospitality
Hybrid systems that keep guests from ever noticing a power cut.
Hospitals & Clinics
Zero-tolerance uptime for equipment that can't afford to blink.
Schools & Universities
Lower overhead now, so tuition doesn't have to absorb diesel costs later.
Real Estate Developers
Estate-wide power planned in at the blueprint stage, not bolted on after.
Warehouses & Logistics
Cold-chain and distribution power that doesn't depend on fuel deliveries.
We Get Paid by the Installer, Not by Marking You Up
Here's the part most solar "consultants" in Nigeria don't advertise: many of them are quietly reselling systems with a markup baked into the number they hand you. We don't touch your invoice. Our fee comes from the installer's margin after the deal closes — so our only incentive is picking the installer who'll actually deliver, not the one who pays us the most.
Your invoice, untouched
The number the EPC gives you is the number you pay. We're not in that chain.
More than one installer at the table
You compare real proposals from multiple vetted partners, not whatever the first company quotes.
Someone reads the fine print with you
Before you sign, we go through the proposal line by line and flag anything priced above market.
We don't disappear after the intro
If something stalls mid-project, you still have someone at Olasupo Energy to call — not just the installer's sales rep.
Get the Number First
You shouldn't have to sit through a sales call to find out if this makes financial sense. Enter what you're currently spending on diesel and get a straight answer — savings, payback period, 10-year total — in under a minute.

Nationwide, With Installers Who Know the Terrain
A solar company that's never worked in your state will still take your money — they'll just subcontract the actual installation to someone who has, and you'll pay for that extra layer without knowing it. We match you directly to a partner already active in your region, from grid quirks to council approvals.

Commercial Solar in Nigeria — Common Questions
What is commercial solar and how is it different from home solar?
Commercial solar refers to larger-scale systems (typically 50kw and above) designed for business electrical loads — factories, hotels, hospitals, schools, and similar facilities. Olasupo Energy works exclusively in this space, not residential/home solar, because commercial systems have different sizing, financing, and installer requirements.
How much does commercial solar cost in Nigeria?
Commercial solar system costs in Nigeria typically range from ₦30,000,000 for a small 100kw system to ₦600,000,000+ for a 1MW+ installation, depending on your facility's load, generator capacity, and battery storage needs. See our full cost breakdown on the ROI calculator page.
Is Olasupo Energy an installer, or does it work with installers?
We are a procurement and matching specialist, not an installer. We qualify your facility, match you to the strongest-fit EPC company from our vetted network, and review their proposal with you before you sign — the installer handles the technical site assessment, design, and installation.
Is the service really free?
Yes. We earn a referral commission from the EPC installer when a deal closes — paid entirely by them, never added to your quote. The price you see from your matched installer is the price you pay.
Which parts of Nigeria do you cover?
Our vetted EPC partner network covers Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, Ibadan, Enugu, Kaduna, Warri, Benin City, and beyond. Every referral is matched to an installer with genuine experience in your specific region.
How long does it take to go from enquiry to an installed system?
From your first WhatsApp message to a signed contract typically takes 3–4 weeks. Installation then takes 4–12 weeks depending on system size, so most clients are fully operational on solar within 8–16 weeks of first contact.
