The project utilizes renewable methods of power generation to supply electricity to the communities. Excerpts:


Durumi, Shape – Waru communities in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja came alive when residents rolled out the drums to celebrate one year of uninterrupted power supply.

The celebration became a reality following the success of the Operation Light-up Rural Nigeria (OLRN), a renewable energy initiative project of the Federal Ministry of Power to provide affordable and reliable access to electricity to rural dwellers through solar powered systems.
