Energy Stakeholders Employs ways to Improve Energy Transition

Stakeholders in the country’s energy industry gathered in Abuja on Tuesday to discuss ways to improve the energy transition strategy while employing green hydrogen to increase power supply.
It was organised by the German government, the African Network for Solar Energy and Renewable Energy, and the Energy Sufficiency Association (REEEA), with a workshop on the Nigerian perspective of a hydrogen partnership with Germany.
According to the NAN, hydrogen is environmentally beneficial when it is created using renewable energy sources.
This is because it can be stored for a long time and transported over great distances.
The German government is working with the Nigerian government, the public and private sectors, as well as academia, to create an enabling framework for hydrogen, according to Gina Lagunes, Head of the German-Nigeria Hydrogen Office.
According to Lagunes, one of the accomplishments of the German government was that a research on the policy regulatory framework for hydrogen in Nigeria, which would encompass energy development, was nearing completion.

Prof. Daniel Egbe, president of the African Network for Solar Energy, stated that Germany and Nigeria already have a relationship in the field of green hydrogen.
According to Egbe, the workshop was also organised to get Nigerians’ thoughts as requested by the German parliament.
According to him, the goal of the workshop is to equally develop recommendations for actions for international green hydrogen partnership.
“It aims to promote understanding of the perspectives of these potential hydrogen exporting countries by discussing and exchanging with stakeholders through an online survey workshops.

Green hydrogen, according to Prof. Magnus Onuoha, National Vice Chairman of the REEEA, is a cutting-edge technology that will be essential to Nigeria’s energy transformation.
According to Onuoha, the goal of the workshop was to increase capacity and inform participants about the collaboration between Germany and Nigeria in order to encourage involvement.
He claims that Nigeria should capitalise on the significant and numerous job prospects in green hydrogen by creating the appropriate regulations and environmental conditions.
