We run the numbers. CircularEnergies delivers rigorous, affordable feasibility studies that tell Nigerian and West African operators exactly what a fuel or energy transition will cost — and whether it makes financial sense for your specific operation.
A concise, data-driven brief covering the current state of Nigeria's energy transition — fuel prices, CNG infrastructure progress, solar economics, biogas opportunity, and what it means for operators planning their next capital move.

Fuel subsidy removal, naira devaluation, and rising diesel prices have made energy the single biggest cost pressure on Nigerian SMEs — yet most operators have no access to credible, affordable analysis of the alternatives.
Since subsidy removal, pump prices have tripled. Fleet operators, manufacturers, and hospitality businesses are watching margins collapse — but switching fuels without rigorous analysis is a risk most can't afford to take blind.
Nigeria imports most of its refined fuel. Every naira slide directly raises your operating cost. Domestic alternatives — CNG, LPG, biogas — break this dependency, but qualifying your operation for them requires specialist analysis most operators can't access locally.
International consultants charge in dollars and take months. Local engineers don't cover the financial modelling. Banks won't finance a transition without a feasibility study. CircularEnergies was built to fill exactly this gap — at a price Nigerian SMEs can actually afford.
Each study delivers a clear financial model, payback period, risk assessment, and a plain-English Go/No-Go recommendation — structured for banks, DFIs, and your own board.
Should your fleet convert from petrol or diesel to Compressed Natural Gas? We model your vehicle count, daily mileage, conversion CAPEX, compression infrastructure, and fuel savings to produce a clear IRR and payback analysis.
Is a solar hybrid system right for your facility? We assess your load profile, size the optimal system, model CAPEX against diesel savings, and identify the most affordable financing options currently available in Nigeria.
Do you generate organic waste from a farm, food factory, or abattoir? We assess feedstock volume, model a biogas digester plant, calculate carbon credit revenue stacking, and determine whether you can generate your own gas profitably.
Thinking of entering or expanding in the LPG distribution chain? We model bottling plant economics, last-mile distribution margins, household affordability in your target market, and the investment case for integrated LPG supply infrastructure.
Positioned to supply SAF feedstock or build a production hub serving West African aviation? We assess Nigeria's agricultural residue base, HEFA vs Fischer-Tropsch economics, CORSIA credit revenue, and offtake opportunities under upcoming EU and UK SAF mandates.
Nigeria's solar irradiance and Atlantic coast create a long-term green hydrogen export opportunity targeting EU REPowerEU mandates. We model electrolyser LCOH at Nigerian solar cost curves, ammonia export economics, and DFI financing pathways including IsDB and AfDB hydrogen funds.
Nigeria is the world's largest cassava producer — yet almost none of it is converted to bioethanol. We assess cassava feedstock availability and pricing in your target region, model a bioethanol distillery plant at Nigerian civil and equipment cost benchmarks, calculate production economics against imported petrol displacement, evaluate PMS-blending offtake opportunities under the National Biofuel Policy, and produce a full IRR and payback analysis for your proposed production capacity.
CircularEnergies is entering the production and commercial sale of next-generation fuels and recovered-resource products to Nigerian and African operators, manufacturers, households, and industrial buyers. Every product below is backed by our own feasibility analysis and targets a real, underserved demand in the Nigerian and West African market.
We are currently in feasibility, pilot, and early commercial stages across six product lines. Enquire to discuss offtake, partnership, or bulk purchase arrangements.
Compressed biogas produced from agricultural waste, livestock manure, and food-processing residue — offering a 100% renewable, carbon-negative alternative to fossil CNG. Our Bio-CNG is suitable for fleet operators converting from petrol or diesel, industrial process heat, and grid injection.
High-density solid fuel briquettes produced from rice husks, sawdust, sugarcane bagasse, and groundnut shells — a clean, smokeless, affordable alternative to firewood and charcoal for cooking and industrial process heat. Targeted at households, restaurants, bakeries, and small manufacturers across Northern and South-West Nigeria.
Fuel-grade bioethanol produced from cassava and sugarcane — Nigeria's two most abundant fermentable feedstocks. Our bioethanol is positioned for PMS blending under the National Biofuel Policy, industrial solvent use, pharmaceutical and cosmetics manufacturing, and clean cooking fuel (ethanol gel stoves). Nigeria imports most of its industrial ethanol at dollar cost — we produce it locally.
Drop-in sustainable aviation fuel produced from agricultural residue and used cooking oil (UCO) through the HEFA production pathway. Targeted at West African airline operators facing EU CORSIA obligations and UK SAF blending mandate requirements from 2030. Nigerian and West African aviation currently imports all its Jet-A1 at dollar cost — SAF produced locally closes this gap and generates carbon credit revenue simultaneously.
Nigeria generates hundreds of thousands of litres of used lubricating oil (ULO) monthly from vehicles, generators, and industrial machinery — most of it illegally dumped or burned. We collect, re-refine, and sell high-quality re-refined base oil to lubricant blenders, industrial maintenance operators, and fleet managers at a significant discount to virgin imported base oil. Re-refined oil meets the same performance specifications as virgin base oil.
Synthetic fuel oil produced from non-recyclable plastic waste (PE, PP, PS) through thermal pyrolysis — converting Nigeria's 2.5 million tonne annual plastic waste problem into a diesel-substitute fuel product. Our refined pyrolysis oil is sold to industrial generators, marine engines, agricultural machinery operators, and cement plants as a lower-cost diesel alternative. Carbon black and syngas co-products generate additional revenue streams.
No long procurement. No ambiguous proposals. A clear scope, fixed fee, and a report you can take to your bank or your board.
Tell us about your operation, energy challenge, and the decision you're trying to make. We'll confirm which study fits and send a fixed-fee proposal within 48 hours. No obligation, no cost.
We collect your operational data, apply Nigeria-specific cost curves and the latest regulatory frameworks, build the financial model, and stress-test every assumption. You receive progress updates throughout.
A concise report with a plain-English executive summary, full financial model, payback analysis, risk register, and a clear Go/No-Go recommendation — plus a 1-hour debrief call included at no extra charge.
Most energy consultants in Nigeria serve upstream oil & gas or large infrastructure projects. CircularEnergies focuses specifically on the transition pathways that make financial sense for mid-size operators — applying global analytical standards to Nigerian and West African market realities.
Our models use actual Nigerian fuel prices, CBN exchange rates, NERC tariffs, and local CAPEX benchmarks — not international proxies that distort the numbers.
Every engagement has a clear scope and a fixed price agreed before we start. You know exactly what you're getting before you commit a single naira.
Our feasibility reports are structured to meet the due diligence requirements of Nigerian commercial banks, the CBN Green Finance Framework, and leading DFIs including AfDB and IsDB.
We are based in Abuja and serve clients across Nigeria and West Africa. We understand the regulatory environment, the financing landscape, and the on-the-ground realities your operation faces.
Beyond one-off feasibility studies, CircularEnergies delivers ongoing AI-powered intelligence and ESG reporting infrastructure for energy companies — automated market monitoring, regulatory tracking, compliance management, board-level risk intelligence, and end-to-end sustainability reporting. Recurring. Retainer-based. Built for operators who need to stay ahead.
We publish our prices because transparency builds trust. Every package includes the financial model, the written report, and a debrief call — with no add-on charges.
Tell us what you're dealing with — rising fuel costs, a transition you're considering, or a project you need to finance. We'll tell you honestly whether a feasibility study makes sense for your situation, and what it would cost.
