Abba, who made the pledge at the opening ceremony of the International Power Engineering Exhibition and Conference in Abuja, emphasized the need for the integration of renewable energy into the country’s energy mix to improve efficiency and sufficiency.

Represented by the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Power, August Gana, the Speaker noted that the sector had undergone several reforms and privatisations aimed at improving efficiency and reliability over the years.

He also expressed worry that despite these efforts, the sector continues to face numerous challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, transmission and distribution losses, amid insufficient generation and distribution capacities.
