Lagos schools compete in 2026 clean energy challenge

The Lagos Clean Energy Schools Innovation Challenge 2026 has been launched by the Lagos State Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources to promote clean-energy innovation, STEM education, and practical problem-solving among secondary school students. The initiative, which will focus on four thematic areas - solar energy and photovoltaics, energy efficiency and conservation, biogas and waste-to-energy, and wind and hybrid energy systems - aims to nurture the next generation of clean-energy innovators and develop a generation capable of identifying challenges and working systematically towards practical solutions.

The competition, which will take place across districts and culminate in a state-level championship, is seen as an investment in young people and the future of the energy sector.
