The implementation of the Electricity Act 2023 (as amended) [EA] in Nigeria will lead to significant developments in the deployment of renewable electricity systems in the Nigerian Electricity Supply Industry (NESI). The decentralization of the power system aims accommodate renewable technologies such as Battery Storage, Solar PV, Wind, Hydrogen, Biofuel, Waste-to-Power, Wave and Tidal Barrages, Biogas, Small, Medium & Large-Scale Hydro, etc. Most of these plants all have similar goals, to maximise their profitability by optimising the design, whilst ensuring that all necessary performance requirements imposed by the regulator, Nigerian Electricity regulatory Commission (NERC), and applicable State Electricity Regulatory Commission (SERC), are met. In addition, specific requirements of utilities in the NESI for integration into their networks must be satisfied.
