2、ture?o70%of global GHG emissions come from infrastructure(power,industry,transport)and construction(42%):Achieving climate goals is closely tied to industrial and infrastructure decarbonisation.oEnergy transition is global priority:The uptick in cleaner and renewables energy sources is complemented
3、by net-zero pledges/investments.oA few examples of Nigerian government alignment include the REA mini-grid program,pCNGi and National Energy Fund.However,there is still a global deficit of$670 billion in net-zero investment.oLow-carbon industrial energy will require infrastructure resilience sustain
