Why we're building Suny

Going solar in Nigeria is not one decision. You have to understand what you need, find someone credible, judge a proposal and a price, find the money, get the work done and keep the system running — and each of those steps sits with a different party.

Suny coordinates that journey — demand, matching, quotations, project milestones and aftercare in one place — and records what actually happens along the way. Capable installers get to demonstrate their work instead of competing on word of mouth alone. Customers get to follow a project instead of hoping.

We are not assuming we already know which barrier matters most. Trust, cost, finance, information and installer capacity may each be the binding constraint for a different customer or city. We measure where projects stall and work on the part that is actually holding people back — our measure of success is not sign-ups or leads, but a completed, documented, settled installation.

The team

Who's building it

I trained in petroleum engineering and then in data science, and both point the same way — you improve what you can measure, not what you assume. Suny records what actually happens on a project so that customers, installers and partners are all deciding on the same evidence, not on a sales pitch.

Good solar is good engineering: the right person accountable for the work, checked at each milestone, with a record that still stands years later. For a customer that means fewer surprises. For an installer, it's a fair way to show the quality of what you do.
