The Sound of Money Burning šŸ”„ šŸ’ø

The power holding company takes the light by 7pm and you shout go on Gen. You walk outside, and pull the generator cord. Grah-grah-grah x4 ... followed by Vroooom.

It feels normal because We've accepted the noise as part of life in Nigeria not considering pollution (noise & air). But have you ever calculated what that noise is actually costing you?

šŸ’” Let's do the "Generator Math" for an average home or small business running a gen for just 5 hours a daily.

⛽ Fuel: 5 liters/day @ ₦730 = ₦3,650 daily.

šŸ“… Monthly: That is ₦109,500 gone. Every month.

šŸ“‰ Yearly: That is over ₦1.3 MILLION Naira.

1.3 Million Naira. Burnt. Gone into smoke and noise.

And that doesn't even include engine oil, spark plugs, or the mechanic's bill when it packs up excluding the disappointment from the mechanics.

In 3 years, you have spent nearly ₦4 Million on a machine that gives you:

āŒNoise

āŒPollution

āŒStress

Imagine if you took that same money and put it into a šŸŒž Solar System.

āœ…It's silent.

āœ…It's clean.

āœ…Once you pay, the sun sends you no bill.

The generator business model is designed to drain your wallet forever. Renewable energy is designed to free you.

Question for you: Check your bank app. How much did you spend on fuel last month?
