POLICY RECOMMENDATION

Project light-up Nigeria believes using high quality street lights will eliminate situations where streetlights after a few months of installation fail to work because of their low quality thereby defeating the objectives of such projects.

Project light-up Nigeria therefore recommends that henceforth project owners, in this case the Federal, State and local Governments, should recommend and insist on brand of streetlight and other lighting material to be used by their contractors as leaving such decisions solely in the hands of contractors will lead to situations where contractors may use all sorts of low quality and cheap lighting materials in a bid to maximize profit.
Project light-up Nigeria is of the view that using high quality materials, even though naturally more expensive is cheaper in the long run.

PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION:

STREETLIGHTS

In the light of the above, Project light-up Nigeria therefore recommends that the Federal, State and Local Governments of Nigeria use Nordex Italy street lanterns in their various street light projects.
Nordex S.P.A Industries Italy has been in existence since 1973 and they manufacture very high quality street lights and lamps that comes with two years warranty while the lamps have a lifespan of 3years and 5,000hrs warranty.

POWER PLANTS:

In view of Nigeria’s history as regards power generation, transmission and distribution, project light up Nigeria believes it’s time to leave power generation, transmission and distribution in the hands of reputable companies whose materials, products, services and technology have been used in power plants around the world in the last 50 years without any blemish.

In the light of the above, to build power plants, we recommend Alstom  group France whose services and technology 25% of the worlds power production capacity rely on.

In building power-plants, we recommend OBO-BETTERMANN Germany products be used.
OBO-BETTERMANN has been in existence since 1911 with presence in over 75 countries and their materials have been used in countless power plants around the world including the following:
