Solar hybrid systems do not only replace petrol/diesel generators but are full-proof primary source of electricity supply with the grid now taking the number two position as a backup. Savings of up to 60% for over 20 years of the system lifetime is possible compared with the current energy mix of grid electricity as the primary source and petrol/diesel generators as alternative power supply. The average expected payback period is under 5 years for the Nigerian scenario for instance, considering the prevailing electricity prices for grid electricity plus the capital and operation cost of petrol/diesel generators.
Recent effort by the federal government of Nigeria to improve the electricity supply to her citizenry is a welcomed development. This would however not preclude the uptake of SHSs as it is not only complementary to the traditional forms of power generation but also a sure replacement in the not distant future as the world wakes up to the environmental issues associated with fossil based power generation and the budgetary cost savings in deferring the upgrade of the national electricity grid infrastructures to meet increasing electricity demand. It is important to state that the cost of upgrading the grid is usually transferred to the electricity consumers as increased tariffs and therefore the more you use power from solar the more you are insulated from increases in electricity prices.
