Sustainable Power and Irrigation for Nigeria Project

About this project

The proposed Sustainable Power and Irrigation in Nigeria (SPIN) project will address nexus of water-food-energy challenges in Nigeria through investments in irrigation, dam safety, and hydropower planning. By mobilizing water for productive purposes, optimizing the use of existing storage facilities, and enhancing hydropower planning capacity, the project will make integrated management of water, energy and food more effective and resilient in Nigeria. It will do this by investing in the management and resilience of multipurpose water infrastructure as well as strengthening the policies, institutions, capacities, and inter-governmental cooperation required. The proposed project includes four main components:1) Institutional strengthening and capacity building for water resources management; 2) Irrigation Modernization; 3) Improvements in Dam Operations and enhancing dam safety; and 4) Project Management.
