Lack of access to electricity imposes significant constraints on livelihoods and economic activities. Salpha Energy identified communities in Akwa Ibom State, Nigeria – predominantly populated by farmers, traders, and government workers – without access to constant electricity supply from the grid for both domestic and business needs. As a result of this energy poverty, many of the residents resorted to fossil fuels and petrol-powered generators., resulting in impaired livelihoods and income generation, compounded by an increase in environmental pollution due to increased carbon footprint.
