- Smart Energies expanded into renewable energy and clean mobility with electric motorcycles, solar stations, subsidy cards, and a mobile app.
- The company calls for partnerships to scale affordable, sustainable energy across Nigeria.
Smart Energies, a leading domestic energy solutions provider, has expanded its business from mass deployment of clean cooking gas to innovative renewable energy solutions designed to improve access, affordability, and sustainability across Nigeria.
The company announced the rollout of electric motorcycles, solar-powered charging stations, cooking gas subsidy cards, and a mobile app that gives households and communities real-time access to clean, affordable energy.
Furthermore, CEO Yinka Opeke said the expansion aligns with the company’s growth strategy, which combines innovation, inclusivity, and social impact. “We are redefining energy access by integrating renewable energy and electric mobility into our business model, empowering Nigerians from delivery riders to entrepreneurs to adopt clean mobility without the barrier of upfront costs,” she said.
Smart Energies offers flexible rental options for electric motorcycles, including daily, weekly, and monthly plans, alongside lease-to-own programs spanning three months to one year. The company has also introduced prepaid cooking gas subsidy cards to help families access clean fuel at discounted rates efficiently and transparently, mitigating reliance on firewood and other harmful fuels.
In addition, Opeke highlighted that Smart Energies embeds Environmental, Social, and Governance principles in all operations, aligning initiatives with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. She cited the Trash-for-Gas campaign, which distributed over 70,000 cooking gas cylinders, LPG safety training, and now renewable energy and mobility solutions as examples of people-centred innovation.
The Smart Energies Mobile App integrates services for clients, drivers, and gas retailers, ensuring seamless access to clean energy solutions across Nigeria’s 36 states and the FCT.
Calling for collaboration, Opeke emphasised, “Smart Energies is built on partnerships. The challenges of market development are greater than one company can handle. We invite governments, development agencies, investors, and private sector players to join us in accelerating sustainable energy adoption. Together, we can power economies and uplift lives.”
