At Eablenex, our mission is to dismantle the high cost barrier limiting the adoption of decentralised clean energy to power communities and businesses for a sustainable future.
Today about 95 million Nigerians – 55% of the population do not have access to electricity – representing the largest human assemblage globally without electricity.
80% of Nigeria’s operational energy capacity comes from polluting petrol and diesel generators as the main backup source during power outages.
Nigerians spent USD 14 billion annually in fueling polluting petrol and diesel generators.
The predominant reliance on petrol and diesel generators drives buildings’ operational emissions in Nigeria, emitting an estimated 29 Metric Tons of Carbon Dioxide Equivalent (MtCO₂e) annually.
Our journey began with a shared experience of growing up in Nigeria, where constant power outages stifled the growth of businesses, limited people’s potential and affected every aspect of society. For many, the immediate alternative has always been reliance on petrol and diesel generators—an unsustainable practice that not only pollutes the environment and poses a risk to health but also burdens the end-users with high operational costs. This first-hand understanding of the energy challenges inspired Damilola Adeyanju and Mustapha Manga to officially launch Eablenex in 2025.
While clean energy solutions like low-capacity solar home systems (SHS) have gained traction, deploying high-capacity decentralised renewable systems for urban demand needs often means significantly higher costs, creating a financial barrier for many due to the steep upfront expenses of ownership – considering the low minimum wage in Nigeria, which currently averages $43 per month.
To dismantle this barrier, Eablenex battery technology was designed to provide affordable and accessible clean energy through a shared-use model, offering businesses and communities a more sustainable alternative to polluting petrol and diesel generators.
At Eablenex, we believe that everyone has a right to reliable and affordable clean energy when they need it.
At Eablenex, we are dedicated to achieving 50% female representation within our facilitator network, empowering women with enhanced income opportunities and fostering their active participation in the clean energy transition.
