Abstrakt

Przystosowanie technologia odnawialnej elektryczności stanowi zasadniczą część środków na rzecz zapobiegania zmianom klimatycznym oraz promowania zrównoważonego rozwoju. Niniejszy artykuł podejmuje tematykę czynników przyczyniających się do adaptacji technologii odnawialnej elektryczności w Nigerii, a także barier ją hamujących. Omówiono w szczególności czynniki wpływające na udział odnawialnej energii w całkowitej konsumpcji elektryczności w Nigerii na podstawie danych z lat 1981-2011, a także przy zastosowaniu technik kointegracji Johansena oraz metody korekty błędu wektorowego. Wyniki ukazują, że istnieje długoterminowa korelacja pomiędzy konsumpcją odnawialnej elektryczności oraz PKB, otwartością handlu, rozwojem finansowym oraz udziałem paliw kopalnych w konsumpcji energii. Otwartość handlowa promuje konsumpcję odnawialnej elektryczności, jednak w Nigerii osłabia ją obsesja na punkcie wzrostu gospodarczego oraz lobby wokół konwencjonalnych źródeł energii. Rozwój finansowy nie ma znaczącego wpływu na przystosowanie technologii odnawialnej elektryczności w Nigerii. Rekomenduje się, aby nigeryjski rząd kładł nacisk na technologie, które prowadzą do wzrostu nie tylko ilości odnawialnej elektryczności, ale też udziału źródeł odnawialnych w całkowitej konsumpcji elektryczności.

Słowa kluczowe:
