Nextier Capital Limited is a for-profit organization based in Abuja, Nigeria. It was established in 2011 with a commitment to providing solutions to electricity challenges in Nigeria through advocacy, policy design, strategy consulting, performance management, and research. This renewal award enables Nextier to continue its work improving the electricity sector through public education. Nextier hosts town-hall meetings that educate citizens on industry best practices, and convenes monthly forums on promoting accountability and other policy actions that enhance service delivery. Other activities include publishing a newsletter on Nigeria’s electricity-related news, data, and sector events and a monthly policy brief on topical electricity issues. Finally, Nextier maintains Nigeria Electricity Hub, a platform that provides information and data on the sector. Nextier is collaborating with other electricity grantees in implementing this project. As a result of the project, it is expected that policymakers, the public, and journalists will be better informed about the electricity sector.
