| dc.description.abstract | In an attempt to address the environmental challenges associated with the extraction and burning of fossil fuels in Nigeria and other nations, special attention must be paid to the issue of renewable energy, which has been neglected in the last few decades. The main objective of this paper is to evaluate the the impact of green technologies on the promotion of renewable energy in Nigeria and the need to have a legal framework for green energy in Nigeria. The paper examined the nexus between renewable energy and green technology; it also reviewed the mechanisms for promotion of green technologies as well as the role of law in the deployment of green technologies for sustainability purposes in Nigeria. This paper adopted the doctrinal approach in analysing the impacts of green energy on Nigeria's push for renewable energy that is sustainable and environmentally friendly. This paper found that green technologies evolved from the need to address environmental concerns over greenhouse gas emissions from 'dirty energy,' in addition to efficiency in the production and use of energy. The study recommended that laws and policies should be implemented to support green energy. Impacts, Green-Technology, Promotion, Renewable-Energy | |
