This study explores the need for conversion of wastes to energy for a sustainable power sector and environmental development in Nigeria, to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and to offer incentives for investments in renewable energy sources, and to mitigate the concerns on disposal of hazardous wastes in the country. The study adopts a library-based doctrinal legal research technique with a conceptual approach, relying on existing literature. It explores the potency of existing laws and other legal provisions binding on the practice of waste management to power in Nigeria. Also, it carries out a comparative appraisal of the renewable system through organic wastes to electricity in other countries. The key finding of the study is that if practical measures are taken by the Nigerian government to control waste disposal, it will minimise wastes from the various sources in conformity with the legal and regulatory requirements and this can be utilised to generate electricity. The study proposes a model for converting wastes to electricity to sustain the ever-intensifying demands for energy and to combat ecological issues in Nigeria. The research concludes with recommendations for the fusion of regulations and non-regulatory incentives for conversion of wastes to electricity in Nigeria’s power sector and advocates coherent legal framework on sources of energy with stringent enforcement of energy laws for stable electricity generation and sustainability in Nigeria’s power sector.

尼日利亚将有机废物转化为电能:关于挑战和前景的法律观点

这项研究探讨了在尼日利亚实现可持续电力部门和环境发展的废物转化为能源的需要,以减少温室气体排放并为可再生能源的投资提供激励措施,并减轻对处置危险废物的担忧。国家。这项研究采用了基于图书馆的法律理论研究技术,并以一种概念性方法为基础,并依赖现有文献。它探讨了现有法律和其他法律条文的效力,这些法律和条文将废物管理的实践与尼日利亚的电力联系在一起。此外,它通过其他国家的有机废物转化为电力,对可再生能源系统进行了比较评估。该研究的主要发现是,如果尼日利亚政府采取了实际措施来控制废物处置,它将按照法律和法规要求将各种来源的废物减至最少,并可用于发电。该研究提出了一个将废物转化为电能的模型,以维持不断增长的能源需求并解决尼日利亚的生态问题。该研究最后提出了关于在尼日利亚电力部门中将废物转化为电力的法规和非法规性激励措施相融合的建议,并倡导在能源方面采取一致的法律框架,并严格执行能源法,以实现尼日利亚电力部门的稳定发电和可持续性。该研究提出了一个将废物转化为电能的模型,以维持不断增长的能源需求并解决尼日利亚的生态问题。该研究最后提出了关于在尼日利亚电力部门中将废物转化为电力的法规和非法规性激励措施相融合的建议,并倡导在能源方面采取一致的法律框架,并严格执行能源法,以实现尼日利亚电力部门的稳定发电和可持续性。该研究提出了一个将废物转化为电能的模型,以维持不断增长的能源需求并解决尼日利亚的生态问题。该研究最后提出了关于在尼日利亚电力部门中将废物转化为电力的法规和非法规性激励措施相融合的建议,并倡导在能源方面采取一致的法律框架,并严格执行能源法,以实现尼日利亚电力部门的稳定发电和可持续性。
