Senior Energy Specialist Vacancy - World Bank Nigeria

Senior Energy Specialist Vacancy - World Bank Nigeria
World Bank Nigeria - The Africa Region Energy Unit of the World Bank intends to recruit a Senior Energy Specialist to be based in Abuja, Nigeria to support the in-country activities of the World Bank. The focus of the candidate will be in the area of power and gas sector reform, utility investment programming, rural electrification, renewable energy and energy efficiency.

Job Title: Senior Energy Specialist
Job ID:  110298
Job Family: Energy and Mining
Location: Abuja, Nigeria
Appointment: Local Hire
Language Requirements English [Essential]
Background / General description
The key issues in the Nigeria Energy Sector include:    * Significant Supply deficits and unreliable electricity supply negatively impacts competitiveness of existing private sector and deters new business and investment; With about 3,800 MW of available generation supplied through the grid against an estimated demand of 10,000 MW, Nigeria has considerable unmet demand for power forcing a majority of the population and almost all private enterprises to resort to self generation at a high cost to themselves and the economy.
    * Limited Gas supply infrastructure and upstream gas treatment investments reduce the pace of expansion of Nigeria’s gas fired generation capacity.
    * High technical losses and poor commercial performance reduce the financial viability of the sector and the ability to fund much needed generation capacity expansion and quality of service improvements.
    * Low access to electricity in rural areas limits economic activities, quality of social services and improvements in quality of life. Supply shortfalls have meant that only about 40% of the population has access to electricity – around 90 million people continue to live in the dark.
    * Energy efficiency and Renewable Energy will be important components of plans to diversify away from heavy dependence on domestic gas for power generation and expand access to power in rural areas.

(v) coordinate with development partners, key government officials, regional institutions and other Bank Group teams as necessary; and

Moreover, a series of actions that have allowed the elaboration of national action program on Access to Energy Services are emerging in several countries of the region.

Finally, ECOWAS through the technical assistance of UNDP has received the support of the European Union(EU) to develop investment programmes in several ECOWAS member states. With a view to ensure
