The Vice-President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, will on Thursday (today) launch the Integrated Energy Planning Tool, in collaboration with Sustainable Energy for All.

A statement signed by the Director of Communications, SEforAll, Sherry Kenny, said the launch would be held with support from the Global Energy Alliance for People and Planet and The Rockefeller Foundation.

It said the new data-driven, interactive platform would support the country’s ambition of achieving SDG7 – universal energy access – by 2030.

According to the statement, the Nigeria Integrated Energy Planning Tool, powered by extensive geospatial modeling and layers of data, is the first truly integrated energy planning platform that incorporates the requirements for universal residential electrification, institutional electrification, powering of productive uses, and access to clean cooking.

It said the tool would promote a holistic approach to achieving SDG7 and energy development while also supporting local manufacturing, expanding local solar technology value chains, and potentially creating thousands of new jobs in Nigeria’s energy sector.

The interactive tool gives energy developers and investors the data-driven information they need before entering the market, according to the statement.

It said it could also provide a blueprint for other African countries to follow, ultimately helping to ensure that everyone on the continent has access to affordable and sustainable energy.

The statement said, “The interactive platform will provide low-cost, dynamic and data-driven intelligence for a range of stakeholders, including the government and private sector, to identify the mix of technologies and spending required to achieve universal energy access.

“Alongside the Vice President, there will also be other global speakers at the virtual event, including the United Nations Deputy Secretary-General, Amina J. Mohammed, CEO, Special Representative to the UN Secretary-General for Sustainable Energy for All, Damilola Ogunbiyi and President of The Rockefeller Foundation, Dr Rajiv J. Shah.”

Smiles.. I guess you would have voiced out if you are in his shoes. It requires wisdom to occupy that position bruh, you expect him to come out and condemn the administration he is part of abi. Hypocrisy is all I see, I’m sure you would have kept quiet as well if you are in his shoe because you will value ur wellbeing more.
He is pastor doesn’t mean he isn’t human who should reason behind religion. Even if he is to correct the system, is it by coming all out for them? Being a pastor doesn’t mean he should be perfect.

The problem with you Nigerians is that, you’re very quick to believe anything sugarcoated. Instead of looking objectively, you’re telling us about your feelings and emotions.. who cares??

There are some lessons u need to learn abt life. Knowing wen to speak and wen to keep shut for ur own safety is one basic principles of life and that of great leaders who have lived long.

Freedom after speech is not always guarantee.

Even wen a child is hungry not every food seen is given,

The little he did as acting has since put him in loggerhead which u and I may not be able to save him.

Go and read 48 laws of power and learn bro.

@Abimbola74 was correct.

You don’t condemn an administration of which you are actively part of, the best you could do is to either try your best to effect positive changes where possible or you resign. The former is better than the latter in most instances. Because, once you resign you lose your influence and all relevances.

A living dog is better than a dead lion. Be wise, young man.

Don't bring yourself down to level of commenting on Ghana's stupidity. You are too big for that. Let Almajaris begging on Lagos streets attend to Ghanaians.
