What 0 emission technologies does

0 Emission Technologies Limited (ZETL) is a Nigeria-incorporated private company founded in 2023 and headquartered at 1 Raji Abayomi Street, Oshodi, Lagos. It sells and installs residential solar photovoltaic systems with battery storage, principally a 5kVA panel array paired with a 15kWh battery, and delivers the full scope from site quote through installation to post-installation support. Its core technology stack is conventional solar PV plus lithium-based battery storage with a remote monitoring layer that lets homeowners track production and consumption; no proprietary hardware IP or software platform architecture is disclosed.

The company operates a direct-to-consumer go-to-market model, acquiring customers via its website (zetl.ng), WhatsApp, and paid acquisition on Meta and Google. It addresses two customer segments: Nigerian homeowners seeking reliable power as an alternative to the unreliable grid (NEPA) and expensive generator fuel, and the Nigerian diaspora, who can arrange and pay for installations remotely for family members. A branded financing product, Goletrik, is the commercial centerpiece: it offers an interest-free 12-week plan and bank-partnered terms up to 60 months, marketed against the ₦700,350 monthly fuel-and-maintenance cost of running a 5kVA generator, against which the ₦460,990 monthly solar payment is pitched as a 43% saving. After financing ends, the customer retains the system and effectively receives free power for 20+ years.

ZETL has organized its offering into a multi-brand ecosystem — Sunrays, Sunvelop, Cyclay, Goletrik, and Zecharge — covering products, financing, and installation under one corporate umbrella. Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales (system + installation), recurring financing installments, and long-tail post-financing customer relationships. The company claims 500+ homes powered since inception, has no disclosed external funding, no published revenue, and no disclosed headcount or management team.
