Royal Power & Energy wins World Bank-supported UEP project to expand renewable mini-grids in Nigeria

This initiative aims to enhance electricity access and improve grid stability across Nigeria. The project promotes private sector involvement to address Nigeria’s energy challenges and foster sustainable growth. This development contract will contribute to the country's energy infrastructure. The model is designed to improve grid stability while expanding access in areas with limited or unreliable power supply. The World Bank-backed programme aligns with Nigeria’s broader strategy to increase renewable energy adoption, improve electricity reliability, and reduce dependence on fossil-fuel-based self-generation. Industry experts note that decentralized and hybrid renewable energy systems are becoming increasingly important in Nigeria’s energy transition, supporting both economic development and energy security.
