This research employs a comprehensive Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) analysis to investigate the advancement of photovoltaic (PV) energy in Northern Nigeria. The study delves into intricacies introducing PV systems within context economic challenges, including issues such as currency volatility and inflation, which amplify costs impede capital investments. Environmental factors, dust sandstorms, are identified obstacles diminishing efficiency solar panels. Additionally, security concerns remote areas elevate operational influence investment decisions. paper proposes effective mitigation strategies, encompassing widespread public awareness campaigns augment market engagement, establishment mini-grid for enhanced distribution, customised on-the-job training programs foster local expertise technology, utilisation micro-grid experimental grounds regulatory policy testing. By synthesising these components, offers overview prerequisites essential successful proliferation Emphasis is placed on potential significantly contribute region's sustainable development achieve independence when strength, opportunities exploited. key strength average Global horizontal irradiance (GHI) 5.436 kWh/m2, Direct Normal Irradiance (DNI) 1534–1680 Levelised Cost Electricity (LCoE) $ 0.1, an opportunity fully utilise over 7.88 million grant authorised by African Development Bank (AfDB) from Sustainable Energy Fund Africa.
