With an estimated 340,000 jobs expected to be produced by 2030 and up to 840,000 jobs by 2060, Nigeria's net-zero route would result in considerable net job creation, with the power, cooking, and transportation sectors accounting for the majority of these jobs.
In Nigeria's net-zero pathway, gas will be essential as a transition fuel, especially in the areas of cooking and power, considering that Nigeria's energy transition offers substantial investment prospects, including the creation and growth of solar energy, hydrogen, and electric car businesses.
