Fellow Hosts APWEN at Federal University Solar Plant
Fellow Tolulope Erinosho (Nigeria, 2022) recently welcomed the Association of Professional Women Engineers of Nigeria (APWEN) to the ongoing 3.0 MW Solar Hybrid Power Plant project site located at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta (FUNAAB), where she works as a lecturer and researcher. This initiative forms part of the Federal Government’s Energizing Education Program (EEP) and the Nigeria Electrification Project (NEP), aimed at enhancing renewable electricity access for off-grid communities and establishing training centers for renewable energy across beneficiary universities. The advanced infrastructure features 16,300 units of 545W solar panels and a design focused on reliability.
“[The women’s] enthusiasm was a testament to the project’s impact, not just in providing energy solutions but also in inspiring the next generation of engineers,” Tolulope shared. “Together, we can unlock the future.”
