UN Recognises Nigeria’s Progress in Expanding Affordable Energy Access

The UN’s World Social Report 2026 praised Nigeria’s efforts, including those of the Rural Electrification Agency (REA), which have provided reliable electricity to more than five million people and created over 5,000 green jobs. The Nigeria Electrification Project has supported 125 mini-grids and the distribution of more than one million solar home systems, using subsidies and tailored tariffs to lower costs.

The report also commended agrivoltaics projects in Nigeria and Ghana that combine solar power generation with farming on the same land.
