ADEDOKUN, R., STRACHAN, P.A., SINGH, A. and VON MALMBORG, F. 2025. Exploring the dynamics of socio-technical transitions: advancing grid-connected wind and solar energy adoption in Nigeria. Energy research and social science [online], 119, article number 103850. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.erss.2024.103850

Globally, countries are transitioning their national electricity grid system to meet the obligations of the Paris Agreement. National grid-connected renewable electricity provides an opportunity to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Specifically, in a...

Promoting accountability and transparency in the governance of renewable energy transition in developing nations. (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
ADEDOKUN, R., STRACHAN, P. and SINGH, A. 2024. Promoting accountability and transparency in the governance of renewable energy transition in developing nations. Poster presented at the 2024 All-energy exhibition and conference, 15-16 May 2024, Glasgow, UK.

COP28 concluded with the need for an enhanced transparency framework to ensure progress towards achieving Countries' Nationally Determined Contributions. This requires the tripling of global renewable energy capacity by 2030 to reach net-zero emissio...

Decarbonising heating and fuel poverty in the UK: causes, policy implications, and the next steps. (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
SINGH, A. and STRACHAN, P. 2024. Decarbonising heating and fuel poverty in the UK: causes, policy implications, and the next steps. Presented at the 2024 All-energy exhibition and conference, 15-16 May 2024, Glasgow, UK.

Fuel poverty occurs when a household cannot afford to adequately heat their home or meet basic energy requirements. National Energy Action’s figures for April 2024, show 6 million UK households are in fuel poverty. Fuel poverty problem needs to be...

Advancing grid-connected wind and solar energy adoption in Nigeria: exploring the dynamics of socio-technical transitions. (2024)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
ADEDOKUN, R., STRACHAN, P. and SINGH, A. 2024. Advancing grid-connected wind and solar energy adoption in Nigeria: exploring the dynamics of socio-technical transitions. Presented at 2024 The Progress Playbook Policies for the planet conference, 14 March 2024, [virtual event].

The project examines the existing dynamics of the uptake of renewable energy on the national grid in Nigeria by investigating the barriers, drivers, and enablers to transitions. Findings show Inefficiencies in the incumbent regime deterring penetrati...

A roadmap for energy transition strategic planning and governance: a case study of Nigeria's grid-based renewable electricity sector. (2024)
Thesis
ADEDOKUN, R.F. 2024. A roadmap for energy transition strategic planning and governance: a case study of Nigeria's grid-based renewable electricity sector. Robert Gordon University, PhD thesis. Hosted on OpenAIR [online]. Available from: https://doi.org/10.48526/rgu-wt-2445678

The global drive for energy transition has resulted in Nigeria formulating energy policies to incorporate about 30% of new renewable energy sources into the planned 30GW of electricity generation by 2030. This is principally because deploying renewab... Read More about A roadmap for energy transition strategic planning and governance: a case study of Nigeria's grid-based renewable electricity sector..
