- The new inverter represents an order-of-magnitude leap forward in solar generating capacity for a Sun King product.
- The solar inverters are available nationwide through Sun King’s 68 Nigerian retail branches and the company’s network of distribution partners.
Sun King, an international company that designs, distributes, installs, and finances solar energy solutions, has launched its new solar inverter in Nigeria in line with its commitment to leveraging technology to contribute to sustainable energy systems. The solar inverter, which provides homes and businesses with seamless, clean, and affordable energy around the clock, seeks to replace expensive, fossil-fuel-powered generators and end Nigerians’ dependency on the unreliable grid.
At the launch of its latest solar innovation, the Sun King EasyBuy General Manager for West and Central Africa, Omoyemi Tuga, said the new inverter represents an order-of-magnitude leap forward in solar generating capacity for a Sun King product. He said, “We are excited to deliver reliable, professionally installed, and serviced grid-equivalent solar power to customers who use polluting, expensive generators or depend on the unreliable grid. The new expandable hybrid inverter is designed to generate up to 2 000 watts of electricity, equivalent to the grid. It can be connected to two sources of electricity: solar panels and, when available, the grid. The inverter can power appliances directly or charge a zero-maintenance lithium iron phosphate battery, which reduces households’ energy costs and provides an uninterrupted power supply. The battery is designed to last ten years, and the products have a three-year warranty, providing customers with peace of mind.”
He added, “The solar inverters are available nationwide through Sun King’s 68 Nigerian retail branches and the company’s network of distribution partners. Potential customers can book an at-home energy assessment through Sun King’s 8,400 field executives, from sales and installation to servicing and ongoing support. Sun King’s field executives offer end-to-end customer support.”
Sun King is one of the country’s leading solar energy companies between February 2020 and February 2023. Sun King gained half a million new Nigerian customers between January 2020 and January 2023. Nigeria’s Rural Electrification Agency and Sun King, formerly Greenlight Planet, worked together to provide over a million Nigerians with affordable solar energy through the Nigeria Electrification Project.
