Nigeria Energy Transition Plan

Transport

Transport

This sector represents about 24% of in-scope emissions

Decarbonization Strategy

The ETP proposes the reduction of transport emissions by switching to low-emissions transport technology and mode-shifting. The focus of the ETP analysis is on passenger vehicles which accounted for ~72% of transport emissions in 2020.

Additional emissions reduction is obtainable through mode-shifting from gasoline/diesel and hybrid vehicles to electric buses/2-3 wheelers.
There is opportunity for biofuel blending to serve as an interim decarbonization measure in the transition to an electric-based system. Electric vehicles are considered only realistic post-2030 therefore, in the interim, biofuels can help decarbonize the sector.
