“Our renewable energy solution will provide us and our growing clientele with consistent power and greater ease to conduct business,” added Jarmakani.
As part of its wider effort to enable the Lagos Port to achieve green port status, Nigerdock’s solar operations currently enable the company to displace approximately 40% of its daytime energy consumption while reducing the dock’s output of CO2 by roughly 2,000 tons, thus achieving significant emission reduction targets.
“The solar power expansion is the next step in Nigerdock’s journey towards green port status, highlighting the company’s vision and commitment to Nigeria’s Climate Change Act, the Blue Economy, and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals,” Jarmakani concluded.
This initiative will serve to improve energy consumption in Nigeria while reducing the country’s carbon footprint and transitioning Lagos Port towards a self-sustaining economic hub.
