The Centre started effectively in 1982 along with the other Centres in the Country which are funded directly by the Federal Government. It is designed to be a Centre of excellence for research, development, dissemination and training in renewable, alternative and other energy technologies. It is presently active in the areas of Solar, Biomass and Coal energy utilization, energy consumption and energy policy studies. The Centre is presently housed in a multi-purpose building consisting of seven offices, a small laboratory, small mechanical and electrical workshops, a library, a seminar room and a conference centre.
Some of the specialized facilities include a computerized solar collector test rig with an attached meteorological station, and classification of wood. There is also a photo-type-photo-voltaic system for light energy. Projects supported by the Centre typically have been executed so far in collaboration with staff of mechanical engineering, agricultural engineering, and physics, statistics, economics and sociology departments of the University. The Centre welcomes project proposals by interested staff of all disciplines.
The National Center for Energy Research and Development, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Energy Commission of Nigeria, Abuja, in collaboration with the German International Cooperation (GIZ) is organizing the 4th International Conference/ Training Workshop on Energy for Sustainable Development in Africa. The Conference will take place between 20th and 22nd May, 2020, while the training Workshop on Solar PV Installation (SPVI) holds from 4th to 22nd May, 2020. The theme for the Conference is Energy Solutions for Attainment of Sustainable Development Goals in Africa.
You are cordially invited to the conference as scheduled.

Range of PV conversion efficiencies of solar panels from 1976 to 2020 NREL
The major hiccups to the accelerated development of technology to exploit, explore, and harness renewable energy in Nigeria are unstimulated demand, non-implementation of the available regulatory and institutional framework, as well as lack of incentives for private investors (Oyedepo, 2012). Nigeria''s annual consumption of electricity has been steadily growing. Making it even increasingly important to urgently expand energy supply through a robust investment planning. Energy consumption has increased from 1273 GWh in 1970 to 29,573 GWh in 2019. This, however, represents a repressed demand caused by inaccessibility to the national grid and insufficiencies of the electricity supply.
Another major problem of energy production, distribution and consumption in the country is related to environment and climate change; mainly deforestation and pollution (air, water and soil). Oil spillage, pipeline bunkering and vandalism, as well as gas flaring have taken a toll on the nation''s economy over the past decades (Mansur, 2020). Owing to the above-mentioned ill-practices which have far reaching negative consequences, there is need to consider and infuse environmental impact into Nigeria''s energy utilization strategy.
To find solution to the problem, or at least ameliorate the effect of power failure in the country, this study seeks to analyze the solar energy potentials in the five (5) states that make-up the southeastern part of the country. This study concentrated on the analysis of solar energy potentials and ascertains the reliability of daily power output prediction with deep learning algorithm in the five selected cities in the eastern part of Nigeria. After conducting the studies, relevant recommendations are made to the authorities as well as private investors on the need to invest in solar energy as one of the most viable options to solving the erratic power supply issues in Nigeria.
The five targeted cities are Abakaliki city in Ebonyi state, Awka in Anambra state, Enugu in Enugu state, Owerri municipal in Imo state, and Umuahia in Abia state. These cities also double as the state capitals, are representative samples of the remaining cities in the target area. The cities have similar weather and climatic condition with other cities within the respective states/regions. This invariably means that the result and recommendations from this study are limited to the states within the country or other regions with similar weather data.
