The Stand-Alone Solar for Productive Use (SSPU) program, a vital component of the Universal Energy Facility (UEF). Their vision is to scale up electricity access to households and Micro, Small, and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs), empowering them to power their income-generating activities.

At the core of the SSPU program lies a commitment to harnessing the power of stand-alone solar systems, designed to propel Nigeria towards a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. Through results-based grant payments to eligible solar companies for verified end-user connections, they aim to facilitate over 480,000 connections, providing access to clean electricity for households and MSMEs.

By supporting solar companies that embrace the energy-as-a-service or lease-to-own business models, they intend to empower them to expand their operations sustainably.

This SSPU program strives to drive Nigeria’s energy transition forward. By displacing fuel generators and scaling up access to clean electricity, we aim to create a positive impact on small businesses and households across the nation. Cloud Energy were selected as the best 10 Companies out of 30 Companies to Facilitate this program.
