Is Natural Gas a Viable Option to Promote Electrification in Nigeria?
Nigeria is Africa’s largest economy and its most populous country, but, as of 2014, only 57.7% of Nigerians had access to electricity. Nigeria’s total primary energy supply (TPES), 20% that of the African continent, is dominated by biomass fuel consumption in the residential sector. As its population continues to grow steadily, one of the greatest challenges for Nigeria is to develop the infrastructure that is needed to provide modern energy services to its citizens.
