SUSTAINABLE NIGERIA

Energy For One World

Performance Platformon “Energy & Sustainability”

For Nigeria

An initiative from the Energy For One World/ Adriaan Kamp/ Kenny Adesodun and with UN SDSN

BACKGROUND

• In September of 2015, the United Nations is to agree and embark on a ground-breaking program of capacity and capability building in the realms of Sustainable Development. In both programs-Energy and the Energy Sector are crucial and vital element for it's success.

• Also, at the end of 2015, we will experience the results of years' of climate change negotiations in Paris, France

• Nigeria is craving for energy – and can make perhaps better use of it’s natural resources. World-wide Resource exploitation becomes ever more complex and costly.

• How can Nigeria benefit from modernized and sustainable energy solutions?

• What impact will this have on the lives and health of Nigerians, the economy and the natural environment?

BACKGROUND & OPPORTUNITY

ENERGY FOR ONE WOLRLD

• Attractive, new and powerful technologies and innovations have and are becoming available in the re-designs of our homes, cars , our neigborhoods and our economies (industries) and help us to transform our established energy architectures with more clean, distributed, efficient power generation and distribution.

• Energy For One World (EFOW) Sustainable Development Performance Platforms can help country and clients to improve on existing performances and new solutions ( dream-team)

• Dr Sunday Olayinka Oyedepo outstanding research work on Energy and sustainable development in Nigeria and the way forwards

• Our shared passion and commitment to the Nigeria: it’s background, cultural heritage, experience and intelligence:

• EFOW deep commitments to the sustainable development goals, our relationship with team Jeffrey Sachs and the UN SDSN, IRENA, IEA, and relevant global/regional (energy) organisations.- and proven record, in bringing power to the people.

• Extensive background and working relations on Energy and Energy Transition- with leading senior officials, industry partners and knowledge partners in the (full) Energy Sector Value Chain, including Oil, Gas, Utilities, Power Distribution, Renewables, Energy Efficiency – in the World: (NW) Europe, Middle-East, USA,

ENERGERIA

• “Good Energy” has the possibility to elevate the Nigerian society and build the working foundations such that the society can flourish and grow beyond our imaginations.

• In today’s world, Energy is much more then only a commodity. Decisions made on Energy do impact the chances and opportunities in our Economies, our Societies, - In our relationships, and our natural environment.

• As such- our proposal encompasses our abilities to work with you- which may create the value and values presently not seen or appreciated.

SUSTAINABLE NIGERIA

• We have developed a “performance platform” for (energy/smart city/ infrastructure/ energy for all) business-, projects-, education-, - exchange and which we propose for Nigeria – and by so doing- making Nigeria succeed in its rapid (sustainable) development agenda.

• We invite you to join us with this visionary project and help (EFOW/ UN SDSN) -to realize this worthy dream which will serve Nigeria, Nigerian people, and cater to Nigerian’s Economic Sustainability needs, it’s energy professionals and sector.

• This proposal and approach re-enforces a new tone of voice and commitment between the parties and which can propel and create new (business) value and values beyond our imaginations.

• Annual program of Game-Changing Projects: Action-Orientated Pressure-Cookers and Projects.

START UP PROJECT PACKAGE• Executive Energy Awareness and Outreach;

• Program/ Governance Bridge; Part and parcel of the Practice is to serve as (partial) Program/ Governance Bridge (inter-mediator) between e.g. business interests vs. Country (or State) needs (system solutions). To help to build some “right program frames or coalition of the willing”.

Support/Collaboration/ Intelligence Network and Parties

The following typical (large-scale western) organisations have been probed and may be willing to partner, support or sponsors this Elite Practice :

will consist of:

KEY MILESTONES AND DELIVERABLES• We envision the following development path- for this product and product launch:

• Second half 2015– Business Proposal, Approach and Business Plan for 2015 and beyond agreed (between founders)– Relevant supporters/ sponsors found and landed.– Launching Customers: Start-up Project Package Scouted and Agreed. – Project dream-team defined and re-sourced.– Website PR & Branding- Practice

• First Half of 2016– First products/ events successfully delivered – Build-up : New series of products & services. Sales Funnel charged for 18-24 month period- New

customers– Step-up in partnerships and organisation

• End 2016– Full consulting organisation.– Budget & Revenue over 5 million USD / Value impact > 100 million USD

• Mid 2017– Value impact > 300 million USD

GOVERNANCE PLAN• Governance of the “Practice” shall comprise the representation of the “founding partners” and EFOW - and

by representation/delegation from (most) senior officials from the sponsor regions and industries- appended by a management layer with the practitioners from the execution parties .

• The management team will consist of a program director and project leaders. The program director will coordinate all activities in and between the practitioner knowledge cycle and the delivery cycle.

• He/She will be advised by the Founders of the Program.

• The dual challenge of the program director is to maximize the synergy between the practitioners of the program (cross discipline challenge) as well as to optimize the cyclic interaction between the cycles of the program (cross culture , cross- company, cross- border challenge).

• These are the necessary conditions for the successful creation of our value added.

• The proposed start-up arrangement of parties hence exists of the Founding Membership teams:

The steering board –and founding partners- will make program decisions on:

Annual goals, programs and objectives in conjunction with Government Reps and Clients.

Budgets and distribution thereofCommercial spin-outs matching with participant business needs

New partner agreements and/or exitsNominations for program management positions

Decisions will be made by voting rights, and (program) decisions can be vetoed by the founding partners.

THE NEXT STEP• The journey begins NOW! And we are keen and interested to agree the next steps with you. • To open-up our informal conversation (‘” meet & greet”), to align our mutual understanding on this initiative

and to agree on our mutual intent and/or exclusivity and next forms of work collaboration and roadmap ahead for shaping and stepping-up of this initiative.

The following possible and plausible (working) steps come to mind:

• Small) Framing Team - for and between the relevant business partners • As Nigeria (or You) may see benefit to pursue this conceptual frames with us. The business case presented, the

expressed and shared sense of urgency, the tone of voice and proposed approach, and our shared needs to step-up and come with concrete and specific organisational forms for this opportunity are are clear, inspirational and inviting.

• We proposed to continue to arrange for a 360 degrees working dialogue with various actors and stakeholders (In Nigeria, African, Australian, EU & USA markets) , relevant to its conception and process.

• The set-up of a working group in and between the (relevant) parties for the further formation of this innovationinitiative would be a very welcome first milestone and stepping-up.

• A combination of an Opportunity Framing workshop with more in-depth listening and visiting tour with relevant parties within and outside Nigeria and Norway could be a great two-step approach in this situational setting.

• For example a targeted visit and road show- to the key stakeholders and decision makers- could bring much enthusiasm, drive and spirit into raising the bar, and preparing the relevant business leaders to meet, connect and accept that building this opportunity is possible, achievable and a majestical step forwards

• Obviously- the first conceptual blueprints and plans (raison-d-etre, organization, business model, etc.) for this dream-team are available and can be used in this workshop for the community of leaders to work with and decide on.

• As has been done and piloted by Energy For One World over the last 3 years or so.

The dream is for you, The dream is for us, The dream is for them; The dream is for Nigeria

Let us make it come true EnergyForOneWorld
