The Board of Directors of the African Development Bank Group (AfDB) has approved a loan of $500 million to the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The AfDB loan is aimed at financing the first phase of the Economic Governance and Energy Transition Supยญport Program (EGET-SP), a new programme aimed at accelerating transformation of the countryโ€™s electricity inยญfrastructure and improving access to cleaner sources of energy.

It will help close the financing gap of the Federal Budget in the 2024/25 fiscal year, specifically supporting the implementation of the countryโ€™s new Electricity Act and the Nigeria Energy Transition Plan.

The Nigerian government launched the energy transiยญtion plan in August 2022, and in June 2023, passed a new Electricity Act decentralizยญing the electricity supply inยญdustry and setting the stage for increased investments by subnational governments and the private sector.

The energy transition plan envisions the developยญment, by 2050, of 250 GW of installed electricity capacity, 90% of which will be renewยญable.

It will provide clean cookยญing access to the bulk of the population by 2030, using liqยญuefied petroleum gas (LPG), biogas, biofuels like ethanol, and electric cookstoves.

The Economic Goverยญnance and Energy Transition Support Programme will also support the implementation of these policies, helping deยญliver much-needed upgrades of Nigeriaโ€™s electricity infraยญstructure, and fast-tracking the countryโ€™s efforts to tranยญsition millions of households and businesses to cleaner and renewable sources of energy.

The Bank Groupโ€™s $500m support to the Federal Govยญernment of Nigeria is the latest in a series of initiaยญtives aimed at supporting the countryโ€™s economic growth, poverty reduction, and cliยญmate action efforts.

The Economic Goverยญnance and Energy Transition Support Program (EGET-SP) is in line with the Bank Groupโ€™s new Ten-Year Stratยญegy 2024-2033.
