Cement production, ammonia production and industrial heating account for 93% of the energy-related emissions from industry in Nigeria.
Emissions Breakdown (%)
Decarbonization Strategy
Emissions in this sector are reduced through the substitution of clinker with calcined clay and application of Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) in cement production, the replacement of grey hydrogen (Hydrogen produced from fossil fuels) with green and blue hydrogen in ammonia production, and the adoption of zero emissions fuels such as clean electricity and hydrogen for heating instead of natural gas and biomass.

Shift to Zero-Emissions Heating Technologies for Heat -
Amount of Industrial Heat Generated from Different Sources (Petajoules)
Action steps:
Shift to lower carbon processes for ammonia and cement production
Shift to zero-emissions technologies for industrial heating
Milestones:
20% clinker substitute in cement production
33% hydrogen (blue) in ammonia production
50% clinker substitute in cement production and 100% hydrogen (blue and green) in ammonia production by 2060
50% clinker substitute in cement production and 100% hydrogen (blue and green) in ammonia production
by 2060
~ 100% electricity for low/mid temp heating by 2060
~ 100% hydrogen for high temp heating by 2060
