Lagos Energy Academy – At a glance

What is the Lagos Energy Academy? The Lagos Energy Academy (LEA) is an initiative of the Lagos State Government (LASG) to provide world-class hands-on technical engineering training on a wide range of topics and subjects important to the Energy/Power Sector Value Chain. The Academy combines a classroom based teaching approach and hands-on, practical technical training that responds to the urgent and pressing need to close the huge gap that exists in the supply of human capital in the energy sector.

02

Provide international- standard training in all areas of the power value chain ranging from generation, transmission, distribution and production of power sector components such as transformers, meters and control panels.To provide industry standard training for young citizens and produce employable graduates. To deliver medium and long-term social and economic benefits to citizens and society in the state by improving local content inputs, building local capacity, improving energy efficiency and creating new jobs. Improve the standard of electricity technicians and professionals in Lagos State and Nigeria. Establish a Certification Scheme - to ensure that professionals have received and continue to receive a high level of training and experience. To establish a Research and Development (R&D) centre where new technology in Power generation, distribution and management can be developed.

Why Lagos Energy Academy? November 1st 2013 marked a turning point in the history of the Nigerian Power sector. It was the day the Federal Government of Nigeria handed over the assets of the now defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) to 14 successful private sector investors. After over two and a half decades of severe under- investment and poor management, this watershed moment marked a new era for the power industry where investment and good management would cease to be a problem thus improving its contribution to the Nigerian economy.

There is however a plethora of challenges the Power sector must overcome to achieve its true potential – availability of gas for power generation, loss of revenue either through losses in power during transmission or through poor collection rates, amongst others. But a major underlying issue that must also be addressed is, the lack of skilled Human Capital. A skilled workforce in the Power Sector directly or indirectly impacts every stage of the Power sector value chain.

LEA with the relevant partners have designed a curriculum which is relevant to the energy sector and at the cutting edge of new energy technology

03

LEA mission is to be the centre of excellence in energy education, research and innovation in Nigeria
