Lekki Low-Carbon Demonstration Project

The Challenge

Rapid industrial growth in the Lekki Free Trade Zone risked locking in high-emission infrastructure.

Our Approach

Green Protocol partnered with Chinese and Nigerian stakeholders to pilot low-carbon building standards, renewable energy integration, and emissions monitoring across the zone.

The Outcome

The zone now serves as a reference model for low-carbon industrial development in West Africa.
