AS Nigeria intensifies its push toward sustainability, JMG Limited has reaffirmed its commitment to expanding its solar and hybrid energy footprint, strengthening strategic partnerships, and investing in innovation and human capital.

In a world grappling with climate change, clean energy plays a critical role in reducing emissions and providing reliable power to communities in need. Globally, 666 million people still live without electricity, over 85 per cent of them in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Speaking at a media engagement in Lagos to mark the International Day of Clean Energy, Chief Commercial Officer of JMG, Mr Rabih Jammal, said the programme was organised to raise awareness and mobilise action for a just and inclusive transition to clean energy.

The day, observed yearly on January 26, was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 2023 to promote the accelerated adoption of renewable energy worldwide.

“The International Day of Clean Energy underscores the urgent need for Nigeria to fast-track renewable energy adoption,” Jammal said. “Clean energy is no longer a future concept; it is happening now and it is working. At JMG, we are not just advocating for renewables; we are delivering them. From our 150-kilowatt solar installation at our Victoria Island head office to multiple large-scale deployments nationwide, we have proven that clean energy works technically, commercially, and financially.”

The event provided a platform for JMG’s management to demonstrate that clean energy is already a practical, reliable, and economically viable solution delivering measurable results for Nigerian businesses and institutions. According to Jammal, JMG’s solar and hybrid projects have helped clients save millions of naira in diesel costs, improve energy reliability, and significantly reduce carbon emissions.

“As more countries embrace sustainable solutions, clean energy has become an economic imperative for Nigeria. It enhances competitiveness, lowers operating costs, and benefits communities. This is just the beginning, as we will continue to invest in solar solutions, technology, partnerships, and people to scale clean energy across the country,” he added.

With decades of experience delivering solutions that enhance comfort, safety, and efficiency across residential, commercial, and industrial spaces, JMG operates across key business units, including conventional and renewable power, electrical infrastructure, HVAC systems, elevators and escalators, air compressors, and energy-efficient technologies. Its operations are backed by internationally recognised ISO certifications in quality management, health and safety, and environmental sustainability.

Also speaking, Head of Marketing, Oluwatomi Faniran, described clean energy as a core responsibility embedded in the company’s strategy. She highlighted successful deployments at NIPCO fuel stations, a government state house, and facilities such as Nourdm Global and Rack Centre.

“These projects show that clean energy is not only possible but also practical and profitable. Through our renewable energy initiatives, we have reduced carbon emissions by tens of thousands of kilograms of CO₂ and helped clients achieve substantial diesel cost savings,” she noted.
Product Manager, Hybrid Power Systems, JMG Solar, Mr Raymond Nwose, provided further insight into JMG’s renewable power offerings, explaining how the company is removing financial and operational barriers to adoption.

“At JMG, we practice what we preach. Power is available regardless of the season,” Nwose said. “We understand that each customer has unique energy needs and financial realities, which is why we’ve developed flexible, scalable models to make clean energy accessible to businesses of all sizes.”

He outlined JMG’s Outright Purchase, Lease-to-Own (up to 84 months), and Power-as-a-Service (PaaS) models, enabling customers to enjoy reliable, clean power without large upfront capital expenditures. “These options are particularly critical for small and medium-scale enterprises seeking cost-efficient and uninterrupted power while maintaining financial flexibility,” he added.
