Assessing governance of strategic planning for sustainable energy transitions: a sociotechnical approach for grid-based renewable energy development in Nigeria. (2022)
Presentation / Conference
ADEDOKUN, R., STRACHAN, P. and SINGH, A. 2022. Assessing governance of strategic planning for sustainable energy transitions: a sociotechnical approach for grid-based renewable energy development in Nigeria. Presented at the 3rd International conference on energy research and social science: energy and climate transformations, 20-23 June 2022, Manchester, UK.

This paper examines the planning process and governance of new renewable energy technology development on the Nigerian grid (solar and wind). Globally, there has been a drive to transition to cleaner and sustainable energy futures. Therefore, Nigeria...
