Imperium Platform, a new and innovative digital product, has been launched by Sterling Bank, for the purpose of connecting consumers and providers of renewable energy (solar solutions) as a viable solution to Nigeria’s electricity crisis.
According to a statement, the Imperium Platform was launched following the unveiling of the Nigerian electricity industry report entitled, ‘Powering Nigeria: How solar energy can become a sustainable electricity alternative’.
Sterling Bank produced the report in partnership with Stears, a digital information company, the statement said.
Dele Faseemo, the Group Head, Renewable Energy at Sterling Bank, explained that the Imperium Platform sought to provide clean and affordable energy solutions to interested customers while providing different financing options to customers purchasing the solution outright or paying for the installation and operation of the solution.
