Country Director, TBIGC Joy Dariye explained the energy sector reform road map is driven through key objectives, including strategic planning for State electricity market development and universal access focused on intensifying use of electricity for commercial and industrial activities.
Victor Adamu, TBI Team Lead Energy & Climate, Nigeria, emphasized the reform also encompasses mapping the State electricity demand lots based on demography and creating electrification pathways to drive universal access to electricity in a sustainable manner. Furthermore, he mentioned that Kano state will de-risk electrification projects by leading project preparation such that projects are ready for private investment and development.
