NIGERIA'S ENERGY PROBLEM
Inefficient national generation forces domestic and industrial reliance on diesel/petrol generators and biomass
> Population is nearly 200m and growing, but less than
60% have access to electricity and per-capita
consumption is very low at <150kwh/year
> Nigeria has less than 11GW generating capacity on
grid and much of this remains unused owing to
inefficiencies and gas supply constraints
> Distribution is not well developed across the country
and suffers poor maintenance, with frequent blackouts
> The result is Nigeria's excessive overreliance on
small-scale diesel and petrol generators
> Small generators are expensive to buy and run and
responsible for particulate and GHG pollution
> Nigeria also uses large amounts of biomass for
cooking, which could be replaced by LPG
> As GDP increases, demand will increase for air
conditioning, which requires significantly more power
than heating in cooler countries
