Nigeria third nationality determined contribution (NDC 3.0)

The Federal Republic of Nigeria ratified the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) on 29 August 2004 as a Non-Annex 1 Party, its Kyoto Protocol on 10 December 2004 and the Paris Agreement (PA) on 16 May 2017. In doing so, Nigeria affirmed its commitment to the global agenda
towards meeting the objective of Article 2, paragraphs 1(a) and 1(b) of the PA. As per Article 4, paragraph 1 of the PA, Nigeria has committed to achieving netzero emissions by 2060. Additionally, as a Party to the Global Methane Pledge,1 Nigeria has committed to eliminate routine flaring by 2030 and to reduce
fugitive emissions from leaks in the oil and gas industry by 95% by 2050. Nigeria submitted its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution2 (INDC) in 2015 to conform with Decisions 1/CP.19 and 1/CP.20 of the Conference of the Parties (CoP). In line with Article 4 of the PA and Decision 1/CP.21 of the
UNFCCC, Nigeria revised its INDC, to produce its NDC 2.0 in 2021, and is now presenting its third version (NDC 3.0). Nigeria has also prepared and submitted its Long-Term Low-Emission Development Strategy (LT-LEDS)3 in 2024, two Biennial Update Reports (BURs), and its first Biennial Transparency Report
(BTR1) in December 2024 to inform the Convention of its emissions, progress in implementing mitigation and adaptation, and support received and needed. Furthermore, Nigeria has prepared and submitted its Adaptation Communication (ADCOM) in 2022 and is completing the preparation of its National Adaptation Plan (NAP) after finalising the country’s Climate Risk Assessment Report (CRAR).
The Federal Republic of Nigeria sets an ambitious target to achieve an absolute emissions reduction of 184.9 Mt CO2e in 2035 from the emissions of 573.5 Mt CO2e in 2018, which represents a 32.2% reduction.
The total mitigation potential for each sector is as follows: the energy sector, including both fugitive emissions and solid fuel transformation, is 31.2 Mt CO2e; the fuel combustion sector totals 103.4 Mt CO2e; the IPPU sector has a combined potential of 14.0 Mt CO2e; the agriculture sector contributes 2.1 Mt CO2e; the LULUCF sector has a mitigation potential of 347.9 Mt CO2e; and the waste sector has a total of 12.5 Mt CO2e.
