Kurzbericht Peer Learning Workshop des Globalen Südens zu Länderplattformen und einer gerechten Energiewende

The report outlines the design of a proposed Country Platform for Nigeria's energy transition, arguing that the framework must be state-owned, politically anchored, and integrated with national development goals rather than being a donor-driven replica of other JETPs. It identifies critical needs for high-level presidential leadership, vertical coordination with oil-producing states, and the resolution of institutional bottlenecks that hinder the disbursement of climate finance. The proposed platform emphasizes a 'people-centred transition' that prioritizes job creation, energy access, and social protection for displaced workers, while strategically navigating global geopolitical pressures such as the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism.

• Nigeria requires a Country Platform that is rooted in national development and politically anchored, preferably under a presidential mandate, rather than a donor-driven replica of other Just Energy Transition Partnerships (JETPs).
• The primary obstacle to climate finance in Nigeria is not a lack of available funds, but rather weak institutional coordination and a lack of a centralized interface for accessing various funding streams.
• To ensure legitimacy and social license, the energy transition must be negotiated as a national development compact involving oil-producing states, labour unions, and political elites, specifically addressing the dependency on fossil revenues.
• The transition should be reframed to prioritize development co-benefits—such as food security, industrial growth, and energy access—and integrate adaptation measures for vulnerable communities alongside mitigation targets.
• Nigeria must strategically manage international relations to avoid 'hypocrisy traps' from major polluters and navigate specific global mechanisms like the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM).
