BUA plans to diversify into cleaner energy

The partnership is a significant step in the group’s expansion into the energy sector and its commitment to sustainable energy in Nigeria.

The BUA Group Chairman, Abdul Samad Rabiu, promised that the conglomerate will continue to use cleaner energy sources nationwide in line with its short-term and long-term ESG commitments and sustainability plans.

He said that while the BUA Group is already using gas as a critical energy source across its more than 1,000MW captive power plants, the mini LNG project will boost the all-year availability of cleaner energy, supporting the group’s demand for power.
