Bioelectricity:
This is electricity generated from biodegradable biomass e.g.
residues and wastes from agriculture, forestry and related
industries, municipal and industrial wastes as well as energy crops
and plantations.
The conventional technologies of power production, through the
Rankine/Otto/Diesel cycles, are often employed. The energy
supplied at the boiler is sourced from the biodegradable
energy carrier, through
either:
- Direct combustion and co-firing
- Pyrolysis
- Gasification, or
- Anaerobic digestion.
Ordinary bioelectricity plants have efficiencies of about 20%,
while the combined heat and power plants (CHP) may have
higher efficiencies.
Bioelectricity is often accompanied with environmental problems
of greenhouse gas emissions, of varying magnitudes.

Hydroelectricity
- Hydroelectricity comes from the conversion of potential
energy water into electricity by water turbines and electric
generator system.
- Large hydro systems have the disadvantage of displacement
of people, land and ecosystem submersion, dam induced
earth movements, and GHG emission.
Large hydro systems are those rated greater than 30MW
while small hydro systems are less than or equal to 30MW.
- Small hydro is further classified into:

Electricity
- In fuel cell, the chemical energy
of the fuel is converted directly
to electrical energy.
- The most advanced fuel cell is
the hydrogen oxygen fuel cell.
The system consists of porous
electrodes,
an
electrolyte,
hydrogen as the fuel and
oxygen as the oxidant. The
output from the system is
electricity and water.

Hydroelectricity
This Table shows that
hydroelectricity contributed
about 38.5% of the total grid
electricity production in
Nigeria between 1999 and
2004. This contribution is
mainly from the three large
hydropower stations in Kainji
(760MW), Jebba (578MW)
and Shiroro (600MW) owned
by Government, as well as
the small hydropower station
owned by NESCO in Jos of
30MW capacity.

Solar Electricity
As at 1999 about 239 kWp of Solar PV modules
ere installed nationwide. It is useful to note that:
This is equivalent to about 1.88 TWh/annum of r
electrical energy using 6 hours of sunshine daily.
It comes to about 25% of the hydroelectric energy
produced that year.
The installations consisted of 52% for water
pumping, 24% for lighting, 15% for lighting in
offices and 9% for powering health clinics.
The current estimate of the total solar PV
installations are in excess of 350 kWp.

Capacity Limitation:
- The technical expertise to develop, deploy and manage
renewable
energy is inadequate, and worst still, not
relied upon in the country as expertise is often sourced
from outside the country.
- The infrastructure for the manufacture of renewable
electricity system components is not available in the
country. Supply of systems and components is, thus,
dependent on imports.
Financial and Fiscal Incentives:
- Financial and fiscal incentives are not available to fasttrack the development of the supply and demand sides of
the RE electricity market.

Challenges Towards Renewable
Contd
Lack of Awareness:
- There is the general lack of awareness of the benefits of RE electricity.
Inadequate Resource Assessment:
- Reliable resource database to assist investment decisions for RE
electricity industry is absent.
Inadequate Institutional Framework:
- With the mandate of the NERC limited to electricity plant capacities
of 1MW and above, there is no agency to licence smaller capacities that
are often associated with RE electricity.
Intermittency of Resource Availability
- All renewable resources for electricity generation are available
intermittently and cyclic. The challenge of energy storage and system
management during periods of lack of resource add to the complexity
of the systems.
Prof. A. S. Sambo

Challenges Towards Renewable
Contd
Zero Resource Cost:
RE electricity systems have high initial cost. This has limited the
penetration of the system into the electricity market.
