Nigeria’s energy crisis could be on the brink of disruption. The Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture (NACCIMA) has begun a formal review of an innovative fuel-less hydraulic generator developed by Nigerian inventor Christopher Amabi. Designed to deliver 24/7 power without petrol or diesel, this technology could reduce the crippling cost of generators and diesel fuel that businesses currently endure.
Under the proposed pilot, industrial users could access 1-megawatt units with no upfront payment, paying as low as ₦200 per kWh only after successful power delivery — a potential game-changer for local manufacturers and MSMEs. NACCIMA’s decision to verify the proof-of-concept underscores the need for reliable, affordable power solutions in Nigeria’s challenging energy landscape. Stay tuned as this story develops.
