1 Chief Timipre Sylva, Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, has called for the deployment of available technologies to make fossil fuel cleaner in the face of global energy transition. 5 The minister, however, maintained that energy transition was better viewed as providing clean energy, and not as abandoning some energy sources. 6 According to him, the ongoing global energy is a huge challenge to the reliability and sustainability of renewable energy supplies as alternatives to fossil fuels. “All these imply that the global energy mix will remain with us, amidst greater dominance by hydrocarbon energy sources, at least in the foreseeable future. 10 “This will encourage a win-win situation in terms of CO2 emission reduction and meeting global energy demand,” he said.
