Solar installations
Rooftop and ground-mounted solar arrays
Rooftop and ground-mounted solar arrays, mounting structures, inverters and power distribution.
SOLAR AND STREET LIGHTING
Solar and Street Light Installation in Nigeria
Rooftop and ground-mounted solar arrays with mounting structures, inverters and power distribution, plus energy-efficient street lighting for factories, estates, commercial sites and government projects.
- Load profile reviewed first
- Mounting structures by a steel fabricator
- Since 2009
WHY IT MATTERS
Solar that is sized to your load and built to last
Solar only pays back if it is sized to how your site actually uses power and installed on a structure that will hold for years.
- Systems sized from roof area instead of the actual load, so they under-deliver.
- Roof penetrations that leak, or roofs that cannot carry the extra weight and wind load.
- Poor wiring and earthing at the distribution board.
- Diesel bills that keep climbing while the generator does all the work.
- Dark roads and estates, or street lights that fail after a season.

HOW WE WORK
How a solar or street light project runs
STEP 01
Send your load data or site details
Share power bills, generator run hours, load data or, for street lighting, the roads or areas to be lit.
STEP 02
Load profile review
Our engineers review your load profile and advise on the right system.
STEP 03
Method, schedule and price
You get a method, a schedule and a price, usually within three working days.
STEP 04
Structures and installation
Mounting structures go in first, then the arrays, inverters and power distribution, or the street light poles and fittings.
STEP 05
Connection and handover
The system is connected to your distribution and handed over to your team.

WHY MAVEN
Why clients choose Maven for solar
Sized from your load
We start with your load profile, not with how many panels fit on the roof.
Steel and electrical in one company
We fabricate mounting structures and handle industrial electrical work ourselves, so the whole system comes from one contractor.
Working since 2009
Maven has delivered engineering, fabrication and installation work across Nigeria and West Africa since 2009.
Our own workshop in Lagos
Chimneys, ducting, pressure vessels, headers and structural steel are fabricated at our facility in Alimosho, Lagos, so less work is improvised on your site.
Certified welders and engineers
Work is carried out by certified welders, engineers and project managers, with a QHSE coordinator on the team.
Quality and safety built in
We work to a Zero-Defects Quality Standard, with a safety culture aligned with regulatory requirements and global HSE standards.
QUESTIONS
Solar and street light installation: common questions
How do you size a solar system for a factory? +
From your load profile. Our engineers review how your site uses power and advise on the right system. As a rule, size from at least a week of hourly load data, not from roof area. Our solar for factories guide covers sizing, roof checks and payback.
Can solar reduce our diesel costs? +
That is the main reason factories install it. Payback is the system cost divided by the yearly saving; our solar guide explains why diesel displacement often pays back in two to five years. We will look at your own numbers before advising.
Do you install street lights for estates and government projects? +
Yes. We install energy-efficient street lighting for government, estate and commercial projects.
Do you do rooftop or ground-mounted solar? +
Both. We install rooftop and ground-mounted arrays with their mounting structures, inverters and power distribution.
Will my factory roof take solar panels? +
The roof structure has to carry the added weight and wind uplift, and a failing roof should be replaced before panels go on. We check this as part of planning, and as a steel fabricator we build the mounting structures ourselves.
How much does solar or street light installation cost? +
It depends on your load, system size, roof or ground conditions, and for street lighting the number and spacing of poles. Send drawings, a scope of work or a short description of the problem on WhatsApp or through the contact form. Our engineers reply with a method, a schedule and a price, usually within three working days.
Want to cut diesel use or light up your site?
Send your load data, bills or site details. An engineer will review them and reply with a method, a schedule and a price, usually within three working days.
