ナイジェリアのエネルギー移行計画には4100億ドルが必要だが、毎年100億ドルの資金不足に直面している。本研究は、ディアスポラ送金の10%（年間20億ドル）を活用し、フィンテックと協同組合モデルで太陽光ミニグリッドやEVインフラを資金調達する提案。このモデルは12万人以上に電力を供給し、700人以上の雇用創出、排出削減が可能で、アフリカ全体にスケールできる。
English
Nigeria's Energy Transition Plan requires $410 billion but faces a $10 billion annual funding gap. This study proposes leveraging 10% of diaspora remittances ($2B/year) via a fintech cooperative model to fund solar mini-grids and EV infrastructure. The model could electrify 100,000+ people, create 700+ jobs, and reduce emissions. It is scalable across Africa.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Nigeria’s ambitious Energy Transition Plan (ETP) which is currently a top-priority government policy, $410 billion to achieve the planned net-zero emissions target by 2060. But the key to success is already being hindered by a $10 billion annual funding gap. This study explores an innovative financing mechanism leveraging up to 10 per cent of Nigerian Diaspora’s $20 billion annual remittances to fund green infrastructure, focusing on the model of the private sector-inspired Nigerian Renewable Energy Village (NREV). Motivation: This study is motivated by the need to bridge Nigeria’s green financing gap using the untapped resources of diaspora capital for sustainable development. Data and Methodology: Using secondary data from the Central Bank of Nigeria, World Bank, Rural Electrification Agency (REA), the United Nations (UN), NREV project documents and reports from other authoritative sources, we propose a Green Transition Fintech capturing 10% of remittances ($2 billion/year) via fees and exchange rate margins, integrated with a Diaspora Cooperative offering dividends and carbon credits. Findings: The model could fund NREV’s $120 million solar mini-grid and EV infrastructure, electrifying 100,000+ people, creating 700+ jobs, and reducing emissions. Policy Implications and Recommendations: Regulatory reforms for Fintech and carbon markets, tax incentives for diaspora dividends, and public awareness campaigns are critical to drive adoption. The model is scalable across Africa.
