Abstract
- At present, just 40% of Nigeria’s populace is associated with the energy matrix, while power supply challenges are capable around 60% of the time. In the best-case scenario, the regular everyday power supply in Nigeria is assessed at four hours, albeit a few days can pass by with no force by any means. Neither force cuts nor reclamations are reported; prompting requires a heap shedding plan during the COVID-19 lockdowns to help reasonable conveyance and consistency. To address this issue, this paper proposes energy harvesting technologies to the epileptics power supply in Nigeria. The technology was chosen as proven efficient and reliable in many studies as an alternative and reliable power generation source. It is also largely maintenance-free and environmentally friendly, and powers hardware where there are no ordinary force sources, and ultimately, it wipes out the requirement for continuous battery substitutions and running wires to end applications. The paper was written in sections: Introduction; Power Supply in Nigeria; Current Situation in the Power Sector; Overview of Energy Harvesting Technology; Application Area of Energy Harvesting; and Solution to Epileptic Power Supply in Nigeria. Lastly, a concise conclusion and a list of relevant references were presented.
