Ezenwoko, Country Head Nigeria and Ghana, Daystar; Mr. Christopher Ezeafulukwe, MD/CEO Abuja Electricity Distribution Plc. at the signing of a tripartite agreement to deliver Uninterrupted Inter-Connected power solution for The Wood Factory in Abuja on Thursday

, both leveraging interconnected power facilities to deliver seamless electricity supply and great value to the customer. This integrated power solution is expected to yield an estimated 44% reduction in energy costs and an impressive 76% annual decrease in carbon emissions for Wood Factory. The unique value offering is in furtherance of AEDC’s transformational strategic objective of redefining customers’ experience by providing reliable electricity supply to both existing and new customers, including the unserved and underserved customers. Under the ongoing transformation of AEDC, the Management of the company is driving its repositioning as a clear leader amongst the power distribution companies (DisCos) in Nigeria.

The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of AEDC, Christopher Ezeafulukwe, stated that “We are excited about the great opportunities that the transformation and turnaround of AEDC is giving us to serve our customers, both new and existing, in more delightful ways. This project is a product of our consistent questioning of the status quo in the resilient push of our conviction and belief in using diversified energy sources to serve our customers better, while closing the supply gap in our market.”

He further stated that having previously commissioned an integrated power solution to serve some unserved communities in our network, the current solution for which we signed the agreement today, is focused on serving industrials and commercials, thus repositioning AEDC to serve all bands of customers within its network better. The two projects also confirm to the world, the readiness of AEDC to enter into complementary partnerships that will add great value to the Nigerian electricity market.

AEDC has been in partnership with the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) through which the United States Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) provides funding for feasibility study grant and facilitating the optimization of energy supply through distributed solar energy and grid power.

Jasper Graf von Hardenberg, CEO of Daystar Power, expressed his excitement about the innovative interconnected solar installation, stating, “Working together with DisCos, we can provide reliable and affordable power to Nigerian businesses which will save on energy costs to reinvest in their operations. Our partnership with AEDC supports this position. It is just the beginning; we are looking forward to developing more hybrid solar projects for C&I customers in partnership with the likes of AEDC.”

Mohamed Akar, Director and General Manager of The Wood Factory, expressed his excitement about the transition from self-generated supply to the integrated power supply which AEDC and Daybreak offers, “We’re thrilled that we’ll soon be switching to a reliable integrated power solution to power our factory. For many years, we’ve operated on diesel generators, which is hardly sustainable or affordable. We believe that the future of our business has become brighter with this new partnership with AEDC and Daybreak.”

Abuja Electricity Distribution Plc (AEDC) is a leading electricity distribution company in Nigeria serving the FCT, Niger State, Nasarawa State and Kogi State. As a trusted service provider, AEDC is dedicated to ensuring reliable, safe, and sustainable electricity delivery to its diverse customers.
