: INTRODUCTION
The World Bank is supporting the Federal Government of Nigeria to prepare the Sustainable Power and Irrigation for Nigeria (SPIN) Project. The project aims to address critical issues related to water resources management, food security, and energy security in Nigeria by mobilizing water for productive purposes, optimizing the use of existing storage facilities, and enhancing hydropower generation capacity.
Building upon the lessons learned and achievements from the Transforming Irrigation Management in Nigeria (TRIMING) Project (P123112), the project moves to promoting a more holistic water and storage management by the inclusion of hydropower sector and supporting institutional strengthening, such as on dam safety regulations and guidelines. The project components and related interventions would be chosen through economic, technical, and geographical criteria, to act synergistically and promote an integrated water and storage management. It would also strengthen institutional coordination on storage and water management between the related ministries and departments. The SPIN project intervention will target selected dams in Nigeria with Irrigation and hydropower potential. The Project Development Objective is to strengthen dam safety and improve management of water resources for hydropower and irrigation in selected areas of Nigeria.
