Nigeria Power EPC Market Analysis
The Nigeria Power EPC Market is expected to register a CAGR of over 4% during the forecast period.
In 2020, COVID-19 negatively impacted the market. Presently, the market is expected to reach pre-pandemic levels.
- Over the medium term, supportive government policies and increasing investments in the power sector are expected to drive the market.
- On the other hand, geopolitical tensions and the high fiscal deficit, coupled with a high inflation rate, are expected to negatively impact the Nigerian power EPC market in the short term.
Nevertheless, emerging markets such as distributed power generation, smart grids, and energy storage are expected to create ample opportunities for the players in the near future.
Nigeria Power EPC Industry Segmentation
Power EPC is a form of contract used to undertake the construction of power generation, transmission, and distribution projects on large-scale and complex energy infrastructure projects. EPC stands for engineering, procurement, and commissioning. Engineering and procurement involve the detailed engineering design of a project and procuring all the equipment and raw materials necessary. Construction is related to delivering a functional facility to the client.
The Nigerian power EPC market is segmented by power generation and power transmission and distribution (T&D). By power generation, the market is segmented into thermal, renewable, and other power generation sources. For power transmission and distribution (T&D), only qualitative analysis is provided. The report offers the market size and forecasts for the Nigerian power EPC market in terms of revenue (USD billion) for all the above segments.

Nigeria Power EPC Market Size Summary
The Nigerian power EPC market is poised for growth, driven by supportive government policies and increased investments in the power sector. Despite the challenges posed by geopolitical tensions, high fiscal deficits, and inflation, the market is expected to recover to pre-pandemic levels. The country's power sector, however, lags behind its peers, with a significant portion of the population lacking access to grid-connected electricity. Thermal energy, primarily fueled by natural gas, remains a dominant source of electricity generation due to its efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The government's focus on expanding thermal energy capacity is expected to continue, supported by the country's substantial gas potential. This strategic emphasis on thermal energy is further bolstered by the commissioning of new gas-fired power plants, such as the one in Maiduguri, to meet the growing electricity demand driven by the increasing population.
In addition to thermal energy, Nigeria's power EPC market is witnessing a growing interest in solar energy, particularly in the northern and northeastern regions, which benefit from high solar radiation. The potential for decentralized solar assets is significant, given the low connectivity and harsh conditions in these areas. The installation of solar energy capacity has been on the rise, with projects like those undertaken by Rensource Energy highlighting the demand for sustainable and affordable electricity solutions. The market is moderately consolidated, with key players such as Gentec EPC Ltd, Andritz AG, and Energo Nigeria Ltd actively participating. Recent investments and projects, including those by GE Gas Power and the Nigerian government, underscore the ongoing efforts to enhance the country's power infrastructure, with a focus on both thermal and renewable energy sources.
