We began with refurbishing foreign generators, and turned old or used generators to become like new. The new phase is to assemble/design generators with most of the parts sourced locally. Since January, we’ve been working with the government to ensure quality standards.
The factory will be at Enugu and we estimate to produce thousands of units per week to use in Nigeria and export across Africa. Our price model for the same capacity foreign brand will be at 40% of cost.
Here is the design; it will work on gasoline (i.e. petrol) and cooking gas. I am proud of what young Nigerians are doing, and even happier that when you provide small guidance, great things are happening. I commend Ugoji Harry for exceptional leadership and executing on the playbook. The goal is to list this business in the stock market.

Hello Tekedia,
I see the LPG powered generator and think it is a great idea.
I would like to know more about it, how it compares to petrol, run time per cylinder, comparative costs, parts and assembly, spares availability , time to assemble , the various KVA available, durability and any other data for the bases of comparison?
Also, importantly, are prototypes available as sample run now? say about two pieces for purchase ?
