Following a visit to Nigeria by Assistant Secretary for Energy Resources Geoffrey R. Pyatt, the Department of State announces the formation of an Energy Security Dialogue with Nigeria to advance collaboration on our shared energy and climate goals.
This dialogue will bring together the combined resources of the U.S. government to engage with our Nigerian counterparts on issues including energy access, energy security, decarbonization, clean energy supply chains, and methane emissions reduction.
Home to Africa’s largest democracy, population, and economy, Nigeria will play a key role in the global energy transition. The United States is committed to Nigeria’s success in achieving its energy and climate goals and looks forward to hosting the first Energy Security Dialogue in the coming year.
