itel Expands Into Nigeria’s Energy Market with Affordable Solar Solutions

itel has officially stepped into the Nigerian renewable energy market with the launch of its solar energy solutions in Lagos, Nigeria.

Itel, a subsidiary of Transsion Holdings—alongside Tecno, Infinix, is known majorly for its affordable mobile technology, and is now expanding into the energy sector.

With its range of products, including inverters and batteries, itel is expected to address the pressing energy challenges faced by many Nigerian households.

This move could mark a significant step in the company’s evolution, offering Nigerians cutting-edge, reliable, and cost-effective solar energy solutions tailored to meet the unique demands of the local market.

This venture into the energy sector is anticipated to focus on affordability and reliability to offer a dependable and cost-effective alternative to traditional power sources.

Andy Yan, CEO of itel Energy, articulates this vision by stating, “itel Energy is more than just a brand; it is our commitment to powering a brighter and more sustainable future for Nigeria. Our goal is to make clean, affordable, and reliable energy accessible to everyone, allowing for a better quality of life. We are thrilled to begin this journey in Nigeria, a market we have proudly served for many years.”

Nigeria’s demand for renewable energy is rapidly increasing due to decreasing commodity prices and rising grid electricity costs. In 2022, access to electricity in Nigeria was reported at 60.5%, according to the World Bank, highlighting a significant need for alternative energy solutions.

At the core of itel Energy’s offerings is a diverse range of products expected to address the energy demands of Nigerian consumers effectively. These solutions could provide seamless power backup and uninterrupted electricity supply, crucial for homes and businesses frequently grappling with power outages.

One of their flagship products, the Smart All-in-One ESS (Energy Storage System), is anticipated to integrate effortlessly into Nigerian households. With its 600W Hybrid Solar Inverter and 1.28kWh battery, this system could potentially deliver continuous electricity, even during grid outages.

Additionally, itel Energy introduces IP54 and IP66 Inverters, which are designed to endure Nigeria’s extreme weather conditions. The IP54 model is for indoor use, while the IP66 is suited for outdoor conditions, offering higher protection against water and dust. Both models are built to handle Nigeria’s high temperatures and rainy seasons, ensuring reliable performance even in challenging environments.

itel’s entry into the Nigerian energy sector follows the trend set by smartphone manufacturers like Huawei, with its FusionSolar products. The company recently launched its CI Solution and 150K Series Inverter to integrate resource-efficient technologies into African operations to address Nigeria’s electricity supply challenges.

As itel Energy embarks on its journey in Nigeria’s energy sector, it holds the potential to boost the country’s adoption of renewable energy. With its commitment to offering long warranties, fast service, and 24/7 support, itel Energy is expected to make a substantial impact on Nigeria’s energy landscape, bringing reliable and affordable power to millions of homes and businesses across the nation.
