Nigeria is facing the need for larger electricity supply and improved grid reliability and security.

Targets:

The Renewable Energy Master Plan (REMP) seeks to increase the supply of renewable electricity from 13% of total electricity generation in 2015 to 23% in 2025 and 36% by 2030. Renewable electricity would then account for 10% of Nigerian total energy consumption by 2025.

The Plan also encompasses installed capacity targets for a set of suitable renewable energies, declining as follows:

Small-hydro: 600 MW in 2015 and 2, 000 MW by 2025;

Solar PV: 500 MW by 2025;

Biomass-based power plants: 50 MW in 2015 and 400 MW by 2025;

Wind: 40 MW for wind energy by 2025;

Simultaneously to this increase in power supply, the REMP targets higher electrification rates , from 42% in 2005 to 60% in 2015 and 75% by 2025.

The REMP also implements a set of fiscal and market incentives to support RE deployment. On the short term, the plan includes a moratorium on import duties for renewable energy technologies. On the longer run, the plan advises the design of further tax credits, capital incentives and preferential loan opportunities for renewable energy projects.

U.S. Backs Madagascar’s Rare Earths Project

The Trump administration has opened another front in the global rare earths race, backing a new project in Madagascar as Washington accelerates efforts to break China’s grip on the critical minerals that power everything from advanced weapons and AI infrastructure to oil refining and electric vehicles. The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) has committed up to $4.84 million to Harena Rare Earths’ (OTCQB: CRMNF) Ampasindava project in northern Madagascar. The funding will support pilot plant operations, metallurgical…

Low Gas Storage and Diesel Shortages Threaten Europe’s Winter Supply

Tightening global supply of oil and gas is putting Europe on course for a difficult winter this year due to the continent’s significant dependence on energy imports, despite energy transition ambitions. Gas in storage is much lower than it should be, and a diesel crunch is threatening fuel oil supply security for the heating season. It could turn into a perfect storm. The first warning signs emerged as early as March, as the U.S. and Israeli war against Iran crippled Qatar’s LNG export infrastructure, forcing the Gulf state to declare…

Cooling Emissions Are Set to Triple by 2050 as Heat Waves Intensify

Air conditioning has become a hot-button geopolitical issue as rising temperatures create dangerous conditions around the globe. Air-conditioning units are increasingly being considered as “essential infrastructure” as summer heat waves turn into a deadly and increasingly regular occurrence. But while air conditioning inarguably saves lives, in the short term, they are simultaneously contributing to global warming and distracting from other, more important approaches to managing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change.…
