The Kwara State Government has extended renewable energy infrastructure to additional public hospitals across the state, aiming to ensure stable, uninterrupted power supply and strengthen healthcare services while advancing sustainable and climate-friendly practices.

This development was announced in a statement issued on Monday by the Kwara State Hospitals Management Board, as reported by Alexa News Network.

The initiative builds on previous efforts by installing solar inverter systems in more health facilities, reducing dependence on unreliable grid electricity and costly diesel generators. The move supports critical hospital operations such as laboratories, maternity wards, cold-chain vaccine storage, and emergency departments.

Under the latest phase of the intervention:

Six major hospitals were equipped with 30 KVA solar inverter systems to significantly boost power capacity and enhance service delivery.

The beneficiaries include:

  • General Hospital Share
  • Specialist Hospital Jebba
  • General Hospital Erin-Ile
  • General Hospital Omu-Aran
  • Children’s Specialist Hospital Ilorin
  • Essential Drugs Programme

Seven additional health facilities received 10 KVA solar inverter systems to improve electricity reliability for routine and emergency medical care.

These are:

  • Cottage Hospital Iponrin
  • Cottage Hospital Alapa
  • General Hospital Agbamu
  • Cottage Hospital Ilemona
  • General Hospital Oro-Ago
  • Cottage Hospital Edidi
  • Cottage Hospital Idofin Odo-Ashe

The Hospitals Management Board attributed the expansion to the unwavering commitment of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq to upgrading healthcare infrastructure, promoting environmental sustainability, and ensuring quality medical services reach every resident.

“The management of the Kwara State Hospitals Management Board remains committed to laying a long-term foundation for a stronger healthcare system in the state through strategic planning, effective coordination, and continuous efforts to improve the operational efficiency of government hospitals,” said Dr Abdulraheem Malik, Executive Secretary of the board.

“Our proactive deployment of renewable energy solutions in health facilities is helping to build a more resilient healthcare system while reducing dependence on fossil fuels and unstable electricity supply,” he added.

By stabilising power supply, the solar installations are expected to lower operational costs, minimise disruptions during power outages, and improve the overall quality of care — especially for life-saving and time-sensitive services.

The project aligns with broader state priorities of integrating clean energy into public institutions, supporting Nigeria’s climate goals, and enhancing the resilience of essential services in the face of frequent grid instability.

Kwara’s ongoing push to solarise public hospitals is seen as a model for other states seeking to combine healthcare improvement with sustainable development. The government has indicated that more facilities may benefit in future phases as funding and implementation continue.
