ABSTRACT
This paper proposes a sustainable approach in tackling the menace of municipal solid waste in Nigeria. The country despite being the Africa’s largest economy is only able to dispatch 4,000 megawatts of electricity. Nigeria's electricity access in relation to population is 42% lower than many countries on the continent. The paper applied quantitative methodology by analyzing existing literatures and propose means of converting municipal solid waste to scale up power generation and enhance access to electricity by the population, and also minimizing pollution in the environment by timely evacuation of garbage from the dumping sites. By building this power plant in at least each state, power generation capacity and access to electricity will improve, generate revenue and create job opportunities as well as decentralization of national power grid,
