We assist the government, private sector and NGOs in developing favourable solutions and policies to combat climate change along segments.
NICCRRA is currently implementing four (4) programmes tailored to provide sustainable solutions to the climate change crisis in Nigeria, the greater Sahel and the Lake Chad region.
Transitioning from wood to gas using standardized briquettes made from agricultural residue & water hyacinth is a solution to the deforestation problem in Nigeria and the Lake Chad region.
NICCRRA is designing a clean cooking stove component that will use
both BRIQUETTES and GAS
78% of all CO2 emissions come from urban centres. The heavy reliance on diesel and petrol generators in urban centres leads to increased carbon emissions that contribute greatly to widespread environmental degradation and pollution.
This Programme targets the implementation of a policy mandating that all homes in urban centres across Nigeria – starting with the Federal Capital Territory – source at least 40% of their power from solar energy. Solar energy systems will reduce the timeframe when people in urban centres switch on their generators, therefore reducing the amount of emissions released into the environment.
Reduced Spending on Energy
Reduced Greenhouse Gas Emissions
