Nigeria's climate, resources, and economic and societal conditions made solar energy a suitable alternative energy source. The Northern part of Nigeria has the highest potential for solar. The North has an average solar insolation of 2200 kWh/m^2, [89] while the southern part has 1800 kWh/m^2. [89] In addition to adequate power outputs, solar ...
Nigeria claims to achieve a 13% contribution of hydroelectricity to the electricity generation mix by 2020; a 1% contribution of wind energy to the nation's electricity generation mix by 2020; and a 3% and 6% contribution of solar energy to the nation's electricity generation mix by 2020 and 2030 respectively.

This is a list of countries and dependencies by electricity generation from renewable sources each year.. Renewables accounted for 28% of electric generation in 2021, consisting of hydro (55%), wind (23%), biomass (13%), solar (7%) and geothermal (1%).
The Sun emits more energy in one second (3.827 × 10 26 J) than is available in all of the fossil fuels present on earth (3.9 × 10 22 J), [9] and therefore has the potential to provide all of our current and future global energy requirements. Since solar energy production has no direct emissions and does not require refueling, African nations ...
Mark Z. Jacobson, professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford University and director of its Atmosphere and Energy Program says producing all new energy with wind power, solar power, and hydropower by 2030 is feasible and existing energy supply arrangements could be replaced by 2050. Barriers to implementing the renewable ...
