of natural gas burned off annually in Nigeria instead of being put to productive use.

Less flaring.
More value.
We capture gas that is being flared and put it to productive use — power, industry, infrastructure. The emissions that capture avoids are measured, verified and monetized as high-integrity carbon value.

The problem
Wasted energy.
Constrained industry.
Every year, billions of cubic metres of natural gas are burned off at flare stacks across Nigeria—energy wasted at the wellhead while industry and power users need dependable supply.
Recovering suitable gas for productive use can support power, strengthen industrial resilience and create a pathway to independently verified emissions reductions.
*Carbon value depends on eligibility, verification and approvals.
Nigeria is among the world’s nine largest flaring economies in the World Bank’s 2025 assessment.
Nigeria’s target for eliminating routine flaring—putting productive gas use firmly on the national agenda.

The opportunity
From flare stack
to delivered value.
Recover wasted energy. Put it to work. Create value for industry and the environment.
SaltSpring Energy connects flare-gas recovery with power generation, industrial energy use and electricity infrastructure. We bring together the resource, the engineering pathway and the commercial structure, supported by measurement and independent assessment of eligible emissions reductions.
How we bring it togetherWhat we do
Power. Industry.
Infrastructure.
Three connected priorities: productive electricity, industrial continuity and infrastructure that enables lasting value.
01 / POWER
Power
generation
Connecting recovered energy resources with practical electricity-generation solutions for industrial and local power needs.
- Resource-to-power integration
- Generation pathways
- Fuel and operating requirements
02 / INDUSTRY
Industrial
resilience
Strengthening access to dependable energy for businesses whose production, equipment and growth depend on continuity of power.
- Energy for manufacturing
- Continuity of supply
- Site-specific energy integration
03 / INFRASTRUCTURE
Electricity
infrastructure
Aligning generation, connections and delivery infrastructure so energy resources can support productive economic activity.
- Generation and connection planning
- Technical and regulatory alignment
- Capital and commercial structures
Energy in productive use
Power that serves
a stronger economy.
The right energy system connects the available resource with the needs of its users. Fuel quality, operating requirements and infrastructure must work together.
RESOURCE → INFRASTRUCTURE → PRODUCTIVE USE
01 / POWER GENERATION
From energy resource to electricity.
Recovered gas can support onsite or nearby power generation where the resource and the electricity need are well matched. We bring fuel suitability, generation requirements and connection needs into one practical view.
02 / INDUSTRIAL RESILIENCE
Dependable energy for productive industry.
Manufacturing and industrial activity depend on continuity of energy. Our focus is aligning the energy source, equipment and operating needs to support a more resilient industrial base.
03 / ELECTRICITY INFRASTRUCTURE
Connecting generation with use.
Useful electricity depends on the infrastructure between the resource and the user. Generation, connections, controls and metering must be considered together, with clear operating responsibilities.
The energy pathway is matched to each resource, location and intended use.
How we work
A disciplined approach.
Applied
site by site.
Value comes from putting energy to productive use. We connect resources, infrastructure and industrial needs with a disciplined approach to performance and emissions.

Connect implementation planning with appropriate metering and reporting for energy output, availability and emissions performance. Carbon value depends on eligibility and independent assessment.
ENERGY · AVAILABILITY · EMISSIONSWhy Nigeria, why now
Policy, demand
and the case for action.
Existing energy resources, industrial needs and a national focus on reducing waste create a compelling reason to act.
The Decade of Gas
Nigeria’s Decade of Gas agenda places productive gas use, power and industrial growth among its energy priorities through 2030.
National energy agendaThe cost of continued flaring
Nigeria’s upstream framework addresses flaring, venting and methane emissions, with requirements covering flare reduction, measurement and reporting.
Upstream regulationsA national carbon framework
Nigeria has adopted a national carbon-market framework to guide participation. Carbon value remains subject to the relevant standards, verification and authorisations.
National frameworkEnergy where it is needed
Flared gas is an existing resource. Recovering suitable volumes for power and industrial use requires the right capture, generation and delivery infrastructure.
Nigeria’s flare challengeValue with integrity
Create value.
Reduce flaring.
Productive energy use and emissions reduction belong together. Carbon value arises where eligible net reductions are demonstrated under an applicable methodology and independently verified.
A defensible baseline
Understand the starting emissions position. Assess the baseline, additionality and the fit of the proposed methodology.
Measurement by design
Connect energy output and emissions monitoring from the start, with traceable data and clear reporting responsibilities.
Independent scrutiny
Subject emissions claims to the relevant validation, verification and approval processes. Carbon outcomes depend on those processes and actual performance.
About SaltSpring
An energy company.
A clear purpose.
SaltSpring Energy captures flared gas in Nigeria and puts it to productive use — power, industry, infrastructure — with measured, verified emissions reductions monetized as high-integrity carbon value.
We work to strengthen the industrial base by putting underutilised energy resources to productive use. Our approach combines technical capability, commercial discipline and evidence-based emissions reduction.
