Why do companies procure Nigeria I-RECs?
Nigerian I-RECs enable credible renewable electricity claims within Nigeria for compliance
purposes. These I-RECs are used to:
Report market-based Scope 2 emissions
Possible or mandatory under reporting standards like GHG Protocol, CDP, RE100, SBTI, and
more.
Without I-RECs, companies must report using Nigeria's residual mix carbon intensity,
currently
0.512 tCO₂/MWh
.
Satisfy investor ESG mandates
Meet institutional investor requirements and sustainability fund eligibility criteria to
qualify for funding at better terms.
Meet customer demand for sustainability
Back defensible renewable electricity claims with registry-verified, audit-ready
cancellations.
Fund renewable generation
Channel capital to renewable energy producers through certificate revenue streams,
making further construction more economically viable.

Nigeria has Africa's largest economy and a growing I-REC market, but corporate procurement there still requires manual coordination that most teams can't justify. Soldera automates Nigerian sourcing and delivers certificates with audit-ready records for every major compliance framework.
