Case Study
Case Study: Energy & Power Infrastructure

From Zero Presence to Authorised Distributor in Nigeria’s Power Sector

Sentry GSI (Houston, Texas) had developed the Fast Depressurisation System, proven transformer explosion prevention technology. They had no Nigerian presence, no distribution partner, and no pathway into Nigeria’s 20 electricity distribution companies, the Siemens Presidential Power Initiative, or the country’s industrial power consumer base.

Enthree Strategy identified the right vehicle, structured the distribution arrangement, and facilitated the Service Provision Agreement making GridShield Technologies Nigeria Limited the authorised Nigerian distributor of FDS technology. Active pipeline development is now underway across DisCos, Presidential Power Initiative participants, and industrial consumers.

The Gap
International technology principal. No local presence. No distribution network. No pathway to Nigeria’s power sector buyers.
The Engagement
Enthree identified the right local vehicle, structured the distribution framework, and negotiated the Service Provision Agreement between Sentry GSI and GridShield Technologies Nigeria Limited.
The Outcome
Signed, authorised distribution mandate. Active pipeline across DisCos and industrial consumers. Publicly announced. Ongoing market development.
What It Demonstrates
Enthree can take a foreign technology principal from zero African presence to a signed, operational distribution mandate, through network, structure, and execution.

“We are selective about the mandates we take. Before we commit, we will tell you honestly whether we can deliver. If we cannot, we will say so and refer you to someone who can.”
