He said, “Given Nigeria’s enormous energy resources, its huge human capital and population demography, it is obvious that creating an enabling environment is a critical component in the realization of the Electricity Vision (EV) 30:30:30 which seeks to make available 30GW of electricity by year 2030 with 30% of the energy mix coming from renewable energy sources.

“The Ministry through collaboration under Nigerian Energy Support Programme (NESP) has achieved the following: a. Mapping of over 3,937 settlements; 3,244,605 buildings and 60,183km of 11 and 33kV medium voltage line of the grid in 23 states.

“The data provides information for electrification planning, least cost of electrification, electricity access and decision making. The data has
been uploaded to the Nigeria SE4ALL website www.nigeriase4all.gov.ng ;

“b. Minimum Energy Performance (MEP), Energy Efficiency (EE) Household label and Standards have been developed and approved for lighting, refrigerators and Air-conditioners by Standard Organisation of Nigeria Council (SON);

“c. Nigerian Standards for Solar Photo Voltaic (PV) panels, batteries, inverters and charge controllers are being developed and approved by Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON);

“d. Six solar PV mini-grids developed under NESP I is providing sustainable electricity to more than 15,000 people as at 2020, and 100,000 additional people would be reached under NESP II through the Mini-grid Acceleration Scheme (MAS);

“e.The Building Energy Efficiency (BEE) Code has been developed and introduced in three states (Lagos, plateau and Kano) in the country; and
f. The Energy Efficiency Network (EEN) in the Nigerian industries through the use of ISO 50001 has achieved 15% energy savings in their industrial process.”

He therefore charged participants to do a thorough job in harmonising and integrating all issues discussed into a national policy on Power that would translate into achieving Incremental, stable, and uninterrupted Power to
Nigerians
