The Petroleum Contractors Trade Section (PCTS) of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) has called for the adoption of environmental-friendly processes to achieve energy sustainability.
The PTCS Chairman, Mr Tayo Akinkunmi, was quoted in a statement on Thursday to have made the call at a forum on the future of energy at the ongoing Nigeria International Energy Summit in Abuja.
According to Akinkunmi, the process of making energy available and consuming it has an impact on the environment.
He said that the process also recognises that societies need to leverage natural resources as means of eliminating poverty.
“It is therefore a paradigm shift that demands accountability and balance in our energy systems,” he added.
Akinkunmi noted that technology had a role to play in getting a balance when it comes to energy security, affordability and sustainability as well as its impacts on everyday life.
