Are Generators A Cheaper Alternative For SMEs?

Are Generators A Cheaper Alternative For SMEs

Nigeria’s electricity supply has continued to deteriorate over the past years, and many homes and businesses have been left to rely heavily on alternative power sources. Successive administrations have attempted to find a lasting solution to the power challenges without much success. Recently, the Minister of Power blamed vandalism, poor maintenance, and a shortage of gas for the April 2022 grid collapse.

 

A number of businesses are staggering operations or shutting down due to unstable power supply. In fact, according to the world bank, businesses in Nigeria suffer an annual loss of $29 billion as a result of “unreliable” power supply, and millions of citizens who cannot afford generators are now living in the dark.

Many people go for these generators with the predisposition that it comes cheap, whereas it does not. This is because generators are liabilities. When you obtain these generators, you must continually fuel them with diesel, natural gas, or petrol.

As the price of petroleum products has been increasing rapidly and fuel scarcity continues to loom, running fuel or diesel generators have become increasingly more expensive and difficult to sustain. This is in addition to the
 environmental hazards, health hazards, and noise pollution that these generators pose to their owners and society at large.

"As an SME whose financial forecasts have been disrupted by these power challenges, you need to consider a more sustainable alternative energy source that is clean, reliable, and eliminates fueling expenses."

What other options are available?

Renewable energy, often referred to as clean energy, comes from a constantly replenished natural resource or process. Some good examples are solar energy and wind energy. Although expensive to set up, renewable energy sources like solar power systems often repay their investment (breakeven) in less than four years, and they normally have a service life that ranges between 10 years to 50 years.
