RE Sector Constraints
Nigeria's RE sector offers supply but suffers from limited demand.
ACCESS TO MARKETS
Country Electricity Power
Consumptions
USA 13,240 kWh
SOUTH AFRICA 4,606 kWh
EGYPT 1,743 kWh
INDIA 713 kWh
NIGERIA 149 kWh
Consumption Comparison
Energy Supply
Total Installed Capacity- 10,396 MWAvrg. Monthly Output- 4,500 MW
Estimated Demand- 40,000 – 120,000 MWUn-Met Demand - 35,500 – 115,500 MW
WHY is demand for RE low?
Poor level of Awareness 6% H and 9% of SME’s
reported being familiar with RE benefits
85% H and 61% SME’s reported never seen an RE advert
Poor Quality ( skewed perception) 5% H and 20% of responded
that they trust the quality of RE products sold in Nigeria.
Reasons for low demand
Lack of incentives 85% of households don’t think
there are enough incentives to adopt RE. 100% could not name any.
77% of SME’s did not think there are enough incentives to adopt RE
High upfront cost 70% of Households don’t think
future savings are enough incentive.
91% of SME’s don’t think future savings are enough incentive.
Reasons for low demand
Government Provide Awareness of
reliability and cost savings.
Provide Incentives for developers and consumers.
Developers Product Marketing (beyond
Direct Sales)
Quality Installations.
Service and Maintenance
Consumers Reduce entry barrier (A2F)
Solving low demand
Opening the doors for RE
ACCESS TO FINANCE
Barriers to RE/EE Finance
• Lenders unfamiliar with RE/EE Enterprises• High collateral requirements (above 100%)
• High interest rates,
• Short loan tenors
• Most Banks do not know how to calculate credit risk analysis for RE/EE projects
• RE/EE enterprises have little credit history with banks• Lack of understanding of banking principles,
• Short credit history, limited experience with lenders
• New and inexperienced companies
• RE/EE Sector considered risky
• Consumers - High Cost of Entrywww.winrock.
org
Developer meets EcoBank or Winrock with interest for RE Project financing
Winrock and NEMSA does a due diligence assessment of the RE developer
Developer does not scale through then we do an upgrade course where possible
Overcoming access to Finance breakdown formula
Developer scales through, then we recommend to EcoBank for loan application
Project developer present business case proposal
Developer is assessed by EcoBank for financial credibility and related financial issues
Developer get loan facility
Overcoming access to Finance breakdown formula
Developer commences project
Project is monitored by Winrock where possible
Project is assessed and inspected by NEMSA
Project is given pass mark by Winrock and NEMSA
Overcoming access to Financebreakdown formula
Project developer gets his CAPEX and OPEX back by lease repayment plan or “pay as you go” repayment strategy
Project developer pays back loan
Overcoming access to Financebreakdown formula
Creating the Enabling Environment
POLICY AND REGULATION
No standards for RE/EE equipment SON to set robust quality standards to
insure reliable equipment
Lack of incentives for consumers (private and commercial) Reduction in property tax. (land use,
tenement rate)
VAT for RE products
RE loans interest rate rebate
Facilitate selling excess energy back to grid
Corporate tax brake for those that invest in going green. (Telcos, Banks)
POLICY
Lack of incentives for the industry Import tariff waivers for RE
equipment
Excise Duty waivers for RE products
Regulatory VoidMini Grid regulation that
protects operators.
Feed-in tariff that reflects cost of RE technologies
POLICY
Installation, Service and Maintenance – Reliability and Quality
TECHNICAL CAPACITY
Administration Build up management structure
and the capacity to produce bankable business plans.
Service and Maintenance Scale up capacity to service and
maintain systems. Make S&M a business in itself (SLA).
Technical Staff Insure technical staff is trained on
RE technologies.
Certification
Technical Capacity Constraints
GIZ and Winrock have joined forces to develop a simple, low cost national certification system for Renewable Energy practitioners.

Power deliver technology, Localization and Hybridization – availability and Sustainability
TECHNICAL METHODOLOGY
De –emphasize on the grid and concentrate on mini-gird
Develop alternative R.E sources and localize power generation
Emphasize on energy efficiency consumer appliances and equipment
Develop hybrid R.E power systems using local resource
Technical methodology
Blue Carmel has developed the first full R.E operated Estate or block of Apartments in Nigeria. It runs on Solar/Wind turbines and provision for a standby 100KVA diesel generator
Avenim links is building mini-affordable biogas digester for domestic homes; providing cooking gas
Technical methodology case study
Quintas has developed Gasification stoves and turbines, which use corn cubs, Palm kernel Shells (PKS) to provide industrial cooking and electricity in Nigeria.
Presco Oil and Oil palm company has built a biogas digester using Palm oil mill effluent (POME) to produce electricity for the oil mill. It generates 1.4Megawatts of electricity with a capacity for 2Megawatts.
Technical methodology case study
In order to overcome the Renewable Energy constraints, Developers, Government, International Partners and other stakeholders need to work together. All stakeholders need to contribute their part and coordination will be the key to success.
Markets function only when all the pieces come together.
Conclusions
