St Catherine’s Specialist Hospitals Limited is a Limited Liability Company that specializes in Healthcare service delivery. Founded in 1999 in Port-Harcourt, another branch was opened in Abuja in 2016, in a quest to deliver quality healthcare services to more Nigerians and foreigners alike.
St. Catherine’s Specialist Hospitals Limited boasts a
team of highly experienced and skilled medical staff, as well as support staff,
who work together to ensure that the hospital becomes a world-class hospital
and actively participates in medical tourism.
In view of achieving its goal of delivering
world-class health services, St’ Catherine Hospital, Abuja, desired a stable
and efficient power supply with the goal of achieving increased
reliability/uptime, maintaining eco-friendly initiatives and reducing energy
bills
JMG
Solar, the renewable energy division of JMG
Limited, was thus engaged and has successfully completed the installation
and commissioning of a hybrid solar power system for St Catherine Specialist
Hospital located in Wuse 2, Abuja.
The project was designed to enhance energy
reliability, reduce electricity costs and support the hospital’s eco-friendly
energy initiatives. With healthcare facilities requiring uninterrupted
electricity for critical operations, hybrid solar power systems are
increasingly becoming a reliable energy solution across Nigeria.
With diesel consumption reducing from 2000litres per
month to 1000litres over the period of 4months since the installation of the
hybrid solutions, the hospital has effectively saved about 14 million naira on
diesel purchase in the 4 months of using the solar system.
Power spend went from N7million a month (without
Solar) to N5 million a month (with Solar), leading to a monthly savings of
N2million, after deducting lease fees. All at no CAPEX to St’ Catherine.
Following detailed load analysis conducted, JMG
Solar engineered and deployed a hybrid solar system consisting of
92.8kWp solar photovoltaic generation, 65kW hybrid inverter capacity and
160.8kWh lithium battery storage.
The installation includes 160 Longi solar panels rated
at 580W each, three 20kW Deye hybrid inverters and one 5kW inverter, as well as
30 Deye lithium batteries providing 160.8kWh of energy storage capacity. The
system is installed by mounting the solar panels on the roof and integrates a
smart monitoring system built into the inverter for real-time performance
monitoring.
The hybrid solar system is capable of producing
approximately 11.13MWh of solar energy per month, equivalent to about 133.63MWh
annually, allowing the hospital to cover 100 percent of its energy demand
through solar power and energy storage.
Beyond improving power reliability, the project
contributes to environmental sustainability by reducing approximately 53,091
kilograms of carbon emissions annually.
Commenting on the project, Chisom Okoye, JMG’s
representative on the project, said:
“The 65kW hybrid solar solution with 92.8kWp solar
power and 160.8kWh lithium battery storage has been successfully installed and
commissioned at the client’s facility. The system is fully operational and
delivering reliable energy performance.”
Through its solar power division, JMG Solar continues
to deliver hybrid solar power solutions for residential, commercial and
industrial customers across Nigeria, helping organizations improve energy
efficiency while reducing operational costs and environmental impact.
