20 campuses to get CNG conversion centres
The Midstream and Downstream Gas Infrastructure Fund, in collaboration with Femadec Energy, is set to establish Compressed Natural Gas conversion centres and refuelling stations across 20 federal tertiary institutions in the country.
A Monday statement noted that the Minister of Education, Dr Olatunji Alausa, recently convened a meeting with vice-chancellors and executives from Femadec Energy, MDGIF, and the Presidential Compressed Natural Gas Initiative to finalise project details and ensure timely implementation.
Alausa emphasised the project’s significance, saying, “This initiative not only aims to reduce transportation costs for our students and lecturers but also represents a pivotal step towards integrating clean energy solutions within our educational institutions.”
Echoing this sentiment, a representative from Femadec Energy stated, “Our collaboration with MDGIF and the federal institutions underscores our dedication to promoting sustainable energy.
