Abstract: The project “Access to Electricity in Odighi Community in Edo State Using Photo Voltaic” is being implemented by the Community Research and Development Centre (CREDC). The Inception Workshop for the project held on the 22nd March, 2011 in Benin City, Edo State, Southern Nigeria. The workshop was organized to achieve the third objective of the project - to create awareness in Edo State on the potential for renewable energy technologies (RETs) to address the energy crisis in Nigeria and mitigate the emission of greenhouse gases and to train the first set of community members on the installation and maintenance of photo voltaic (PV) system. The Workshop attracted over 140 participants drawn from government, NGOs, CBOs, community members, students, religious leaders and the media. The Workshop featured goodwill messages from policy makers, paper presentation and training of the first set of community members on the installation and maintenance of PV systems.
