<\/div>\n\n

The Cross River State Government and Oando Clean Energy Limited (OCEL) have partnered to set up a 100MW in Akamkpa Local Government Council which would significantly increase access to electric power in the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cross River State Governor, Prince Otu while disclosing this in Calabar said aside the 100MW Wind Power Generating Plant in Akamkpa, the partnership will also see to the establishment of an Electric Vehicle (EV) assembly plant in the State, as well as the rollout of electric buses for mass transportation within the state, which will considerably reduce carbon emissions, contributing to cleaner air and a healthier environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs part of our green credentials, Cross River State is truly blessed with abundant wind speeds that are conducive to the establishment of wind farms and power plants. Therefore, the development of the 100 MW Wind Power Plant in Akamkpa will not only significantly increase access to electric power for both residential and commercial use in urban and rural areas but also contribute to environmental protection and climate change mitigation and bring about significant economic benefits to the State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018\u2019Also, the establishment of the Electric Vehicle (EV) assembly plant in our dedicated green manufacturing zone within Cross River State\u2019s Free Trade Zone will create job opportunities, both directly in manufacturing and assembly and indirectly in associated industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018\u2019This will stimulate economic growth and enhance local skills and expertise development within the region. In addition to this, the rollout of electric vehicles for mass transportation, from highway to last mile, will significantly reduce carbon emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018\u2019This aligns with global efforts to combat climate change. Through these two projects, the goals of developing sustainable communities within the State, stimulating economic growth from stronger investor interest, and increasing economic activity will be achieved, thereby increasing citizens\u2019 quality of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018\u2019Transforming Cross River into Nigeria\u2019s Eco-Capital \u2013 Matching words with action Moving forward, Cross River State remains steadfast in its dedication to implementing the resolutions and commitments made at COP28,\u201d Otu said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Governor assured that his administration is committed to translating the discussions, collaborations, and agreements it had at the recent COP28 conference into actionable steps that will positively impact the state\u2019s environment, economy and the well-being of our all Cross Riverians.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
