Nigerias Klimawandel im Jahr 2025: Vom Anspruch zur Umsetzung (EN)
Summary
In 2025, Nigeria transitioned from policy ambition to concrete implementation of its climate agenda through the introduction of the National Integrated Electricity Policy, the launch of the Nigerian Climate Investment Platform, and the submission of its NDC 3.0. Key energy initiatives include the National Public Sector Solarisation Initiative and the expansion of mini-grids via the Nigeria Electrification Project. The country also established a National Carbon Market Framework and advanced the Nigerian Gas Flaring Commercialisation Programme to reduce emissions while boosting power generation.
Key insights
- Nigeria updated its energy strategy by replacing the 2001 National Electric Power Policy with the National Integrated Electricity Policy (NIEP), which targets 6.3 gigawatts of new installed capacity by 2030 and a 60 percent renewable energy share by 2060.
- The National Public Sector Solarisation Initiative (NPSSI), launched in August 2025, is a 100-billion-naira (approximately $71.3 million) programme designed to replace diesel generators in public institutions with distributed solar systems.
- The Rural Electrification Agency (REA) deployed over 200 mini-grids under the Nigeria Electrification Project (NEP), supported by a $1.45 billion financing package involving the World Bank's DARES programme, JICA, and the AfDB, as well as partnerships with WeLight and a consortium including Oando Clean Energy, Sosai, and Okra Solar.
