Solar Financing Options for Nigerian Businesses (Lease, PPA, Installment)

Introduction

Many Nigerian businesses want to switch to solar power but struggle with upfront costs—especially large systems for factories, hotels, supermarkets, schools, hospitals, and cold rooms.

The good news?

You don’t have to pay for solar at once.

Today, companies can install a full hybrid solar system through flexible financing options such as:

✔ Solar Lease
✔ Power Purchase Agreement (PPA)
✔ Installment Payment Plans
✔ Equipment Financing
✔ Pay-As-You-Save (PAYS)

In this guide, Solarzone Nigeria explains each financing model and helps you choose the best one for your business.

1️⃣ Solar Lease (Rent-to-Own Solar)

This is one of the most popular solar financing options for Nigerian businesses.

✔ How it Works:

  • Solarzone installs a complete solar system

  • You pay monthly or yearly

  • You use the power immediately

  • After the lease term, you own the system

✔ Perfect for:

✔ Benefits:

Solar leases often pay for themselves through savings.

2️⃣ Solar PPA (Power Purchase Agreement)

This is the cheapest way to get solar without paying for the system.

✔ How it Works:

  • Solarzone installs and owns the system

  • Your business pays only for the solar power you use

  • No purchase, no maintenance

  • Long-term partnership (5–15 years)

  • Hotels

  • Corporate buildings

✔ Benefits:

This is ideal for companies seeking minimal financial risk.

3️⃣ Installment Payment Plan (Pay Small Small)

This allows businesses to split payment into manageable parts.

✔ Payment Breakdown:

  • 30–50% upfront

  • Balance spread over 3–12 months

✔ Perfect for:

  • Small & medium businesses

  • Restaurants

  • Pharmacies

  • Schools

  • Offices

✔ Benefits:

4️⃣ Equipment Financing (Bank-Assisted Solar Loans)

Some Nigerian banks now support solar adoption.

5️⃣ Pay-As-You-Save (PAYS) Solar Model

This model allows companies to pay from the savings produced by solar.

✔ How it Works:

  • Solarzone installs your system

  • You pay monthly using the amount saved from diesel & PHCN reductions

✔ Example:

If your business saves ₦500,000 monthly on fuel, your repayment could be:
➡ ₦300,000/month
➡ You keep the ₦200,000 balance

✔ Best For:

  • Hotels

  • Schools
