Nigeria’s wind capacity is larger than we assumed
New national data identifies over 500GW of viable wind potential across multiple regions.
What the Data Shows
500GW+ Untapped Capacity
Viable wind speeds identified across Plateau, Cross River, and coastal Lagos. This exceeds previous estimates by 300%.
Data from the National Wind Resource Capacity Report
A New Path to Access
44.6% of households lack electricity. Distributed wind expands reach without waiting for grid extension.
Height Changes Viability
Higher turbine elevations convert marginal locations into commercially viable sites. Our data models hub heights up to 150m, revealing latent potential in previously dismissed territories.
Wind power is real power. The shift from potential to generation starts here.
