📋 Tender Overview
Scope :
IHS Nigeria, a subsidiary of IHS Towers, has formed a strategic partnership with Canadian-based energy company Jaza Energy, that will see Jaza install solar hubs at 250 towers in underserved areas of Nigeria.
partnership will enable it to reduce the environmental footprint of its operations.
hubs will provide clean energy to the towers, while the excess power generated by the solar panels at these hubs will be used to charge battery packs for local households and businesses, which it notes will reduce reliance on diesel generators.
Jaza Energy specializes in providing energy equipment and solutions, aimed at supporting homes and communities.
IHS has sought to reduce carbon emissions as part of its Project Green initiative. The project aims to reduce kWh emissions intensity by approximately 50 percent by 2030.
The tower company has invested more than $200 million into the initiative over the past two years.
This partnership with Jaza Energy complements this initiative, as we seek to integrate more solar solutions on our sites, and simultaneously help support local communities. Jaza Energy claims to have delivered more than three million solar battery swaps and reached more than 100,000 people in Tanzania and Nigeria with its clean energy solutions. it expects the 250 hubs to help it achieve an emissions reduction of approximately 32,600 - 33,000 tonnes of CO2e over the seven-year agreement.
