NCC Commences Campaign On Clean Energy In Telecoms Industry Business NCC

The commission’s executive commissioner, Stakeholder Management, Barr Adeleke Adewolu, said the commission is committed to reducing the impact that telecommunications operation has on climate change and the environment, noting that the peculiarities of Nigeria’s electricity supply have resulted in the telecommunications sector being a contributor to carbon emissions.

Adewolu, who was speaking on the arrangements to host an event to mark the 2023 World Consumer Rights Day in Abuja with spotlight on its regulatory initiatives on clean energy usage in the telecoms sector, stated that studies have shown that renewables and energy efficiency, boosted by substantial electrification, can provide over 90 per cent of the necessary reductions in energy-related carbon emissions.

He said, increasing the use of electricity sourced from renewables presents the best opportunity to accelerate the world’s energy transformation. The commissioner, represented by the executive vice chairman and chief executive officer, Prof Umar Garba Danbatta, noted that the theme of the event is very apt this year, “as we know the implication of the climate change disaster facing the world.

“So, as a commission, we are committed to reducing the impact of climate change. The telecoms sector contributes to global emissions, particularly when you realise that there are over 54,000 base transmitter stations powered, in some cases 24 hours/ seven days a week, by generators. You can just imagine the emissions from these.”
