Lighting up Nigerians' lives through mobile power

The system includes a large solar panel linked to an indoor storage unit that allows customers to access on-demand, power. The service is provided on a lease-to-own basis, and the cost is spread over a five-year term, payable in affordable payments via mobile phone from an MTN airtime account.

Marketed as MTN Mobile Electricity, and available at MTN stores, the MTN-Lumos Smart Solar Solution helps Nigerian households and small businesses to replace expensive, dangerous and noisy generators as well as candles and flashlights with modern solar electricity that can power DC electronic devices such as LED lights, cellphones, fans, computers and TVs.
