Post by: Shola Sholaz on Jun 12, 2013, 10:38 PM
The Director General of Energy Commission of Nigeria, ECN, Prof. Eli Bala, said yesterday that the vision of President Goodluck Jonathan to transform Nigeria's economy must be backed and supported by Sustainable Energy for All, SE4ALL, for it to achieve results.
.
Prof. Bala stated this during a one-day multi- sectoral development partners forum on Sustainable Energy for All, SE4AL, organised by the Energy Commission of Nigeria, with the support of the United Nations Development Programme, UNDP, in Abuja.
.
He said the initiative of sustainable energy would make no sense, if not viewed within the context of development, hence the need to link it to the transformation agenda of the Federal Government.
.
He noted that nations worldwide were now pushing for sustainable development, which was driven by energy sources, technology and best practices that were sustainable.
