Kartel Energy Limited, a leading solar solutions provider has trained more than 1,000 industry professionals across six cities.
The training facilitated through its 2026 Technical Masterclass for the indigenous solar equipment manufacturer moves to close the technical knowledge gap slowing the country’s renewable energy transition.
The initiative which focused on high-voltage solar systems brought together solar installers, technicians, engineers, dealers, distributors, entrepreneurs and renewable energy enthusiasts for intensive sessions on practical skills, emerging technologies and business growth.
Speaking at the training, the Chief Executive Officer of Kartel Energy Limited, Ola Ogunsemowo, said the nationwide programme was inspired by the company’s commitment to bridge the knowledge gap within Nigeria’s rapidly growing renewable energy industry.
He noted that as solar adoption increased across homes, businesses and institutions, there was a clear need for practical, hands-on training that equips installers, technicians, entrepreneurs and aspiring professionals with the technical skills required to deliver safe, efficient and industry-standard installations.
“At Kartel Energy, we believe that empowering people with knowledge is just as important as providing quality products. Through the Masterclass, we are investing in the people who will drive the future of clean energy in Nigeria,” he said.
He stressed that the renewable energy sector in Nigeria is evolving rapidly, with rising demand for reliable alternative power solutions.
He said the industry needs professionals who understand modern technologies, particularly high-voltage systems, advanced inverter solutions and best installation practices.
“The Masterclass provides participants with practical knowledge that keeps them ahead of industry trends while improving the quality and safety of solar installations across the country.
“Ultimately, a better-trained workforce translates into greater customer confidence and a stronger renewable energy ecosystem,” he said.
He stressed that the programme is completely free for all participants, adding that the company deliberately removed financial barriers because access to quality technical education should not depend on one’s ability to pay.
He described the initiative as part of Kartel’s corporate commitment to bridge the industry’s knowledge gap, empower professionals, create new business opportunities and support the growth of Nigeria’s renewable energy sector.
