Giving insights into the national energy conference during a media briefing and a one day workshop for media professionals, president of NAPE, Dr. Abiodun Ogunjobi, described energy security as the cornerstone of the nation’s economic stability and growth.

Ogunjobi, opines that nothing can develop a nation except a reliable and uninterrupted supply of energy which is paramount for industrial activities, economic development, and the well-being of citizens.

This he said involves not only increasing production capabilities but also diversifying energy sources to reduce dependency on any single source.

By enhancing our energy infrastructure and investing in resilient systems, we can safeguard against disruptions and ensure a steady flow of energy to meet our growing demands, the president said.

He also mentioned sustainability growth which is about balancing the economic ambitions with environmental stewardship.

“As we strive to expand our energy production, it is crucial that we do so in a manner that minimises environmental impact and promotes long-term ecological balance. This includes adopting cleaner technologies, improving energy efficiency, and investing in renewable energy sources. By integrating sustainability into our growth strategies, we can ensure that our development is not only robust but also responsible, preserving our natural resources for future generations.” added Ogunjobi.

In addition, the NAPE President spoke about affordability which he said  is a key factor in making energy accessible to all Nigerians.

In his explanation, he said, the cost of energy impacts every aspect of our lives, from household budgets to the competitiveness of our industries. Our goal is to develop strategies that lower the cost of energy production and distribution, making it more affordable for consumers and businesses alike.

This involves optimising our supply chains, reducing inefficiencies, and leveraging technological advancements to drive down costs.

He therefore noted that resolving the Nigerian energy trilemma requires a holistic approach that integrates these three pillars energy security, sustainable growth, and affordability.

This helps demand collaboration across all sectors, from government and industry to academia and civil society, adding that, ‘working together, we can develop innovative solutions that address these interconnected challenges.’

Touching on challenges and opportunities in the Oil and Gas Industry, Ogunjobi said, the Nigerian oil and gas industry stands at a critical juncture, where strategic divestments and the enhancement of local content capacity can play pivotal roles in driving growth and sustainability.

This approach presents both challenges and opportunities that need to be carefully navigated to ensure the industry’s long-term success.

The industry, he said, is typically challenged by regulatory and policy frameworks.

According to him, ensuring a stable and transparent regulatory environment is crucial and warned that frequent changes in policies can deter investment and create uncertainty.
