• The cost of charging solar systems in Nigeria

🔋 Solar Load Calculation: How Much Can Your Solar System Carry?

One major question for Nigerian homeowners is whether a solar system can carry appliances like air conditioners (AC), freezers, TVs, and fans. Using a practical example, we calculate load capacity for a 3.6kW Inverter with 8kWh Lithium Battery from Itel Energy Solar.

⚙️ Example Solar Load Calculation

For a 1.5HP inverter AC (~1000W running, ~1500W surge) plus appliances:

• Deep Freezer (350W running, 500W surge)
• 55″ TV (100W)
• 10 LED Bulbs (10W each = 100W)
• Ceiling Fan (75W)

Total running load: ~1275W.
With an 8,000Wh lithium battery, this setup can run for about 6 hours 20 minutes.

⏳ Charging with NEPA/PHCN Electricity

Recharging an 8kWh Itel Energy Solar battery with NEPA light:

• 1 NEPA unit = 1kWh
• 8kWh battery requires ~8 units
• At ₦225 per unit (Band A), cost ≈ ₦1,800
• Charging time with 3.6kW inverter ≈ 2 hours 30 minutes

☀️ Charging with Solar Panels

This solar generator supports up to 5000W solar input. Example with 550W panels:

• 9 × 550W panels = 4950W input
• Recharge time ≈ 2 hours 30 minutes (peak sunlight)
• Recommended: Minimum 5–6 panels for stable performance

🎯 Benefits of Itel Energy Solar Systems

• Grade A Lithium Battery (8kWh)
• 3.6kW Inverter built-in
• 2-year full replacement warranty
• 5-year repair warranty
