SKGS Project Update & Data Release Report

Because of unreliable grids, there are millions of small fuel generators in Nigeria that emit millions of tons of CO2 every year.

Following the analysis of the economics of these small fuel generators in Nigeria, the A2EI set out to provide the sector with an open source hardware solar business system that can replace the noisy, unhealthy fossil fuel generators.

Our customers call the solution the solar generator. We are providing these systems to the market with the brand name AAM.

Two years later, we have not only made the solar generator available, but already sold over 1,000 systems to local distributors, who are installing them, mostly at small businesses.

Every solar generator is sending real time data on consumption and system state, which allows the A2EI to share millions of data points with the sector as open source data.

The A2EI is pleased to now present a new data release and project update for our “Solar Killed the Generator Star (SKGS)” project.
