🚨 MYTH VS REALITY: Nigeria's Electricity Sector

Will higher tariffs automatically improve electricity supply? Are DisCos the only issue?

Our latest policy memo argues that Nigeria's electricity crisis is deeper than these common assumptions.

Dangote Refinery boosts jet fuel amid US-Iran tensions
Nigeria’s Dangote Refinery has increased its output to 700,000 barrels per day. The ramp-up comes as global aviation fuel supply tightens due to US-Iran tensions and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, positioning Dangote as a key supplier of jet fuel.

Algeria exported 46 BCM of gas in 2025.

Down from 49 BCM in 2024.

The decline is the story and the Trans-Saharan Pipeline is the answer.

Algeria is Europe's 3rd largest gas supplier.

But domestic production is falling.

Any European buyer planning 10-20 year supply security has to ask: what happens when Algerian fields plateau?

The TGSP Nigeria → Niger → Algeria is the strategic fix.

This is not Algerian gas... It's Nigerian gas.

The pipeline transforms Algeria from a declining producer into a permanent transit corridor.

30 BCM/year of Nigerian molecules flowing north Algeria stays the reliable, bankable supplier Europe needs for decades beyond its own reserve life.

3 countries win differently.

Algeria: preserves its European relationships long after domestic fields decline.

Niger: breaks energy isolation, integrates into a continental delivery network.

Nigeria: gains a pipeline alternative to LNG, adding leverage in global gas markets.

A TGSP delivering 30 BCM/year is exactly the corridor European buyers need to underwrite right now.

The pipeline has been discussed for decades.
The current crisis has made it urgent.

Thailand has one of the lowest total fertility rates (TFR) in the world. In 2025, the TFR was 0.87, and the preliminary numbers for the first months of 2026 are even lower. The rate is so low that deaths have exceeded births since 2021 and now run 34% higher than births.

Thailand’s fertility collapse has always fascinated me. With a flight to a Bank of Thailand conference in Bangkok ahead of me, I spent some time reviewing the data.

Thailand’s TFR fell below replacement in 1991. That is early. It means completed fertility has been below replacement for at least a full generation. In 1991, Thailand was neither rich nor well-educated. Even today, its income per capita (in PPP, the right measure here) is about Mexico’s level, around 28% of the U.S.

The standard theories for East Asian ultra-low fertility, such as a toxic educational arms race or extreme gender inequality, have little bite here. On the World Economic Forum’s Global Gender Gap Index 2025, Thailand scored 0.728 and ranked 66th. South Korea scored 0.687 (101st of 146), and Japan 0.666 (118th of 148, last in the G7).

I think Thailand is the clearest example of modernity without high income, and that combination is a recipe for demographic collapse.

To illustrate this point: if Thailand’s TFR remained at its current level for 200 years, the population would decline from 65.8 million in 2025 to 1.51 million in 2225. While this is a hypothetical scenario used to make the argument, not a forecast, it gives a sense of the magnitude of the population change involved unless TFR increases at some point. This is not about closing a few maternity wards or fixing Social Security, but about winding down an entire country.

Does anyone have a better theory? I don’t have enough information on Thai demographics, and I am happy to update my view.

Two caveats. First, I use Thailand’s official data from the National Statistical Office. The UN WPP data (and the databases built on it, such as the World Bank’s) are, as always, way off. Second, the official statistics may undercount births somewhat. Even if they do, the picture changes little.

Le Département des Sciences Économiques tire pleinement profit de la nouvelle politique de recherche de l’UPC* pour inciter, encourager et accompagner les étudiants à passer des idées aux actions à impact concret.

Aujourd'hui, l’UPC est fière de l’étudiante Gloire Munkokole ainsi que de nombreux autres étudiants qui ont su transformer leurs travaux académiques (~projets turorets) en initiatives réelles, en projets entrepreneuriaux, en innovations sociales ou en solutions répondant aux défis de nos communautés riveraines.

Cette dynamique illustre la volonté de l’UPC de faire de la recherche non seulement un exercice intellectuel, mais également un levier de transformation économique et sociale.
