The GEF-UNIDO Industrial Energy Efficiency (IEE) and Resource Efficient Cleaner Production (RECP) Project is a groundbreaking initiative aimed at transforming Nigeria’s industrial landscape through sustainable practices. Supported by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and implemented by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) in collaboration with key partners such as the Federal Ministry of Science and Technology, Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), and ECREEE
The GEF-UNIDO Industrial Energy Efficiency (IEE) & Resource Efficient and Cleaner Production (RECP) Project is a national initiative designed to promote sustainable industrial development by improving energy efficiency, reducing environmental impact, and encouraging cleaner production practices in Nigeria.
The project is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and implemented by the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO). National partners include:
The project primarily targets industries in the following sectors:
IEE refers to optimizing energy use in industrial processes to reduce energy consumption and costs, while maintaining or improving production levels. It involves measures like energy audits, system optimization, and adoption of energy-efficient technologies.
RECP is a preventive approach to environmental management that improves the efficiency of energy, water, and materials use while reducing emissions, waste, and pollution. It goes beyond energy to address all forms of resource consumption in industrial processes.
