“Gone are the days when power failures used to a be a big thing for the airport. We no longer have those, said Brenda Voster, Airport Manager.
The solar facility which cost about $1.2 million to build has so far helped airport reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 1,229 tonnes, the equivalent of 103,934 litres of fuel.
Also, there are plans to increase the capacity of the power station by an extra 250 Kw.
“We’re quite excited about us embarking on phase two. Phase two I should say in all probability, will, have the back-up battery facilities where we can then store any solar that we generate through the day that we are not using,” Brenda added. The busy travel hub handles about 700,000 passengers annually.

Freeborn U are product of bad home dat's why you address your leader in bad manner. I wonder if you respect your father at home..for addressing the president that way.
Nice one
We're still on grazing reserve
That's progress Nigeria won't be able to achieve that in the nearest future its not a curse but fact
This is nice. To those saying Nigeria cannot or don't have something like this, it's a lie
There is a service station (Filling station) in lagos that runs on Solar Energy. I know this because I used to work there. It's at Maryland Onigbagbo beside Sheraton hotel. If am not mistaken, it's the first in West Africa. #TotalFillingStation
This is a nice one but the maintenance tempo would need to be very high.
No that's what I'm talking about! Awesome innovation. Naija should diligently harness the abundant solar energy & we'll surpass this... open your eyes & see how a nation should function!

Nigeria can use half of the money recovered from judges to put this is in MMIA.
South Africa takes the lead, other African countries follow...
Your comment will be visible after approval.
Nice one sha!!!!hope it's perfect,to avoid stories that touches heart
Do u understand English at all
In Nigeria my Country, the $1.2 million would hv bn padded to $10 billion
That's real good Change not these present failures in Nigeria.
You're a bastard, is filling station a national establishment? We are talking national establishments and you're talking of filling station.how much revenue does filling station generate mtcheeew!
If you're not mistaken? And you use to work there? Hian! Oga fear God oh its even Sunday for that matter shooor!
Awesome!
They've always been ahead . Anybody who travels overseas and I mean US, Canada and Europe can attest to that.
That's why enlightened people knew Okonjo iweala was manipulating numbers and GEJ's Govt lied abt Nigeria's economic status #FACT. Nigeria produces nothing, does not even generate enough power than Durban SA, has no functional health care, no national airline carrier and decayed infrastructure. So how did they sell the world that #1 lie? Well you can't lie to yourself. The effect is clear now.
