The Government of Nigeria officially launched the Nigeria Energy Transition Plan at COP26 in November 2021. To ensure the plan remained aligned with evolving realities and assumptions, a stakeholder consultation with public and private sector participants was held in October 2024 to review and refine the original plan. Insights from this process directly informed the development of the updated Nigeria Energy Transition and Investment Plan.
The plan signifies Nigeria’s commitment to tackle the dual crises of energy poverty and climate change and deliver SDG7 by 2030 and Net Zero by 2060, while also providing energy for development, industrialization, and economic growth. The plan details pathways for significant low-carbon development of energy systems across 5 key sectors: Power, Cooking, Transport, Industry, and Oil and Gas.
The Government of Nigeria and SEforALL developed the plan with support from Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet (GEAPP).
