When it comes to the issue of finding alternative sources of electricity to power homes and offices, one of the most popular alternatives in Nigeria are Power generators. Power generators are machines designed to convert mechanical energy into electricity energy that is just suitable to supply one's home or office. The type of electricity that electricity generators normally provide is in the form of Alternative Current(A.C.) which is the required form that is needed by household and can conveniently replace power supply from the govt or power company.

Given the rising cost of energy and the fact that electricity demand in countries like Nigeria far outweighs its demand, it only makes sense for people nowadays be able to provide their own electricity by making use of independent mini power stations.

Everyone in Nigeria would probably buy at least one standby power generator just to complement the efforts of NEPA(Power company) if they can afford it but the fact that not everyone in Nigeria has the same financial strength, that is why Power generators have been designed by manufacturers at varying costs so that most people will be able to afford it according to how much they are able to spend.

One of the main things which Nigerians consider when buying an electricity or Power generator is the local price in Naira. How much do generators really cost in Nigeria? Well it varies from size to size and from power to power. From my experience, I've come to know that smaller generators tend to cost less than the bigger ones and more technologically advanced generators tend to cost more than the old ones if they are of equal sizes.

The price of generators in Nigeria depends on a lot of things such as the foreign exchange rate(Because they are normally imported), the manufacturer, the model and it's size.

One question you should ask yourself before buying a Generator in Nigeria is "How much budget do I really have?"
