Omatek is building a multi-billion naira factory powered by solar in Nigeria. The new solar-powered factory expected to take off immediately is the first of its kind in Africa and would be a major income revenue for the company providing 24-hour power to homes, offices, schools, hospitals and hotels. My take: Great move by Omatek, but I’d also like to see it produce low-cost solar-powered tablets for the African market. [via: TechLoy]
