The inspiration to embark on this transformative journey emerged during a heartfelt conversation between our founder, David Agbanwu, and his father during a visit to Nigeria in January 2021.
In the course of their discussion, David's father shared the enduring struggles that communities in Nigeria continued to face due to unreliable power supply. Recalling his own childhood experiences, David vividly remembered the daily obstacles created by the absence of consistent electricity—homework in dimly lit rooms and the reliance on gasoline or diesel generators, bringing with them not only environmental pollution but also significant health risks.
Despite spending almost a decade abroad, David returned to Nigeria in 2021 only to find that the electricity landscape remained largely unchanged since his departure in 2013. Witnessing the persistent challenges firsthand, the seed of Lytup was planted. The realization that millions of families were still grappling with the same power issues fueled David's determination to make a meaningful change.
Lytup envisions a future where reliable, clean, and sustainable power is accessible to all, starting with Sub-Saharan Africa and extending to other regions globally that face similar struggles. Our mission is clear—to electrify homes and businesses by providing innovative battery energy storage solutions. These solutions, ranging from small to medium sized battery systems, boast a remarkable lifespan of up to fifteen (15) years.
At Lytup, our immediate goal is to revolutionize the energy landscape in Africa, beginning with Nigeria. We aim to offer smart battery energy solutions that ensure a 24-hour supply of reliable power. By doing so, we aspire to empower individuals, enhance productivity, and contribute to the economic development of the regions we serve.
Lytup Power Systems is more than just a company; it's a catalyst for change—a beacon of hope for communities striving for a brighter and more sustainable future. Our ultimate goal is to not only provide power solutions but to actively "light up" lives with the impact of our work and products.
Businesses and households in Africa often grapple with unreliable electrical grids, compelling them to rely on costly and environmentally harmful energy sources like fossil fuels and gas generators. The surge in global energy costs exacerbates the financial burden on businesses that depend on self-supplied energy, affecting their operational efficiency and growth.
Our mission is to alleviate this challenge by providing sustainable energy solutions designed for the business sector. With flexible payment options and a focus on consumer education, we aim to facilitate access to secure and modern energy solutions. This commitment is pivotal for enhancing operational efficiency, promoting safer work environments, and unlocking business growth potential, all while reducing carbon emissions and contributing to the region's economic development through clean, reliable energy solutions.
We remain committed to our Core Values. Beyond the development of Energy Solutions, we are devoted to ensuring that our innovations make a genuine impact. These five guiding principles form the foundation of our mission.
