Abstract:

In Nigeria, there is an estimated deficit of 17 million housing units. Power supply is insufficient, and the electricity supply for about 60 million Nigerians relies on private generators, causing noise, pollution, and high expenditures for mainly imported fuel. Altogether, current challenges clearly demonstrate the need for effective energy efficiency policies targeting also the building sector. The Nigerian Energy Support Program began in 2013, among others, with the objective being to support the Nigerian Government in developing the Nigerian Building Energy Efficiency Code.

Abstract:

This study examines capital expenditure and economic development: implications for economic planning in Nigeria from 1990-2020. Specifically, the study seeks to examine the effect of capital expenditure on economic growth as a prerequisite for planning, and to examine the effect of some selected sectors as a tool for planning in Nigeria. The study employs the Autoregressive distributed lag bound (ARDL) technique and descriptive statistics to address the specific objectives. The study reveals that capital expenditure significantly impact economic growth both in the short run and in the long run

Abstract:

The Nigerian power sector continues to suffer from the resource curse. With the abundance of natural and renewable energy resources, somehow the Nigerian power sector has failed to meet the energy demand. Over the years, lack of political will and inadequate investments as regards the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity have led to very costly outages. The frequent collapse of the national grid has led to use of diesel/gasoline generators as a stop gap measure for producing electricity. However, this approach significantly increases the cost of production of goods/services

Abstract:

AbstractNigeria is an oil rich country, endowed with both conventional and renewable energy sources. Electricity generation in Nigeria is dominated by oil and gas. The use of renewable energy in the power sector has not been promoted, despite Nigeria's abundant renewable energy potential. Using the law to integrate renewable energy into the Nigerian power sector will promote energy security and access, a clean environment and economic development. This article argues that the benefits of renewable energy outweigh its negative environmental and social impacts, also when compared to oil and gas.

Abstract: Energy is essential for the growth and improved livelihood of any nation. Nigeria, though blessed with abundance of oil and gas, and has good land mass and natural resources for renewable energy, struggles with energy delivery. Many industries have shut down due to high energy cost or unavailability of the energy required to support their operations. Through critical review of existing studies on the Nigerian energy delivery, this study identified that the Nigerian energy challenges stem from infrastructural issues, environmental degradation, inconsistent government policies, poor re

Abstract:

We reviewed the various sub-sectors of the Nigerian transport sector with their corresponding energy consumption rates. Results show that all the sub-sectors are solely dependent on fossil fuels to meet their energy demands and requirements, thus making the transport sector the highest consumer of fossil fuels, and consequently, the highest contributor to carbon footprint. This necessitates the need for gradual decarbonisation of the sector, but not at the expense of the nation’s economy, since the transport sector contributes about 3% of the nation’s GDP. We have therefore outlined measures t

In a bid to attract foreign direct investments (FDI) into the energy sector, Nigeria has signed many investment and energy-related treaties.

This raises serious legal questions on the status of the various energy investment-relevant treaties Nigeria has signed. This is especially relevant to bilateral investment treaties (BITs) where their non-domestication renders their provisions not legally binding on domestic

These partnerships capitalize on government incentives, such as tax credits and grants, to attract private investment and stimulate innovation in cl

Abstract:

Nigeria has continued to experience a persistent energy crisis marked by limited access to clean, affordable, and reliable energy, which poses significant risks to public health and overall well-being. This study investigated the effect of energy poverty on life expectancy in Nigeria. Time series data for the period covering 1981 to 2023 was used. Using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) estimation technique, the study examined both the short-run and long-run impacts of energy poverty on life expectancy. The results revealed that energy poverty has a statistically significant and negati

Abstract:

The Nigerian government has consistently increased spending without a corresponding improvement in the country’s economic growth trajectory. Using Hirschman’s approach, this study investigated the impact of government spending on economic growth in Nigeria, analyzing annual data from 1970 to 2020. The study utilized data from the CBN Statistical Bulletin to examine government’s spending in the transport, communication, health, education, and utilities sectors. An autoregressive distributed lag model was employed, and the results indicate a positive but non-significant short-term effect of comm

Abstract:

Over the years, the quest for a stable power supply in Nigeria has become insatiable, due to epileptic nature of power availability and incessant outages in the country. This paper tends to dissect the power crisis in Nigeria with a view to narrowing down the malady in the industry to the various sub-sectors and proposing a suitable panacea. Whereas the quantum of energy being generated is abysmal for a country like Nigeria to start thinking of energy sufficiency, the transmission infrastructure is incommensurate with the capacity demand of power transmission.

Electricity theft is a pervasive problem all over the world. With electricity generation in Nigeria falling short of the required generation ca-pacity, it is disturbing that the little power generated is also being stolen by some unscrupulous consumers.

Abstract:

Nigeria's successive governments have tried a variety of policy alternatives throughout the years to enhance the country's power industry, but they have all failed due to substantial energy losses (both technical and non-technical), a lack of knowledge, and high operating costs. The present government found it difficult, if not impossible, to implement any meaningful changes in the power industry given this tendency. Consequently, the private sector must be involved in the growth of Nigeria's electricity sector. In essence, the study looks at how Nigeria's electricity sector would develop betw

Health is a fundamental human right. It additionally implies the ability to live socially and economically productive lives. With rapid expansion of the Petroleum industry with oil accounting for seventy percent of the total export earnings during the 1970s, the Nigerian economy was re-structured from agriculture-driven to oil dependent. Expenditure on health depends on several factors. It is assumed that as natural resource grows, health expenditure will grow. However in case of Nigeria, this will depend on the oil revenue available to the government from the exportation of oil. The most sign
