Hajiya Amina Mohammed, the Minister of Environment, said the Federal Government is planning to develop about 13,000 megawatts (13 gigawatts) of off-grid electricity from solar energy. According to Amina Mohammed, the government was working on the possibility of diversifying the country’s energy mix and laid emphases on renewable energy and efficient gas power in meeting the energy needs of Nigerians. In a document issued to the media, Mrs. Mohammed revealed that, after the recently concluded Conference of Parties on Climate Change held in Paris, they plan to develop solar power in order to “deliver energy to the poorest communities in a cheaper and healthier manner with less emission.” The minister also noted that the government would increase the use of climate-smart agriculture through irrigation systems, climate- resilient crops and broader sustainable land management practices.
