In 2024, the Hydrogen Research Institute organized an International Conference on Clean Energy in Africa (ICCEA). It was held at Afe Babalola University, Ado-Ekiti (ABUAD), Nigeria, with arrival from Sunday, September 25th, to Tuesday, September 27th, 2024. The conference aimed to address the pressing energy challenges with respect to energy efficiency, clean energy, and green hydrogen in the Ado-Ekiti local community, Ekiti State, Nigeria, and Africa; explore sustainable technological solutions in the field of clean energy; and provide a robust energy efficiency and clean energy policy framework for Ado – Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria, and sub-Saharan Africa.
The event focused on three (3) subthemes: hydrogen energy, green hydrogen, and general clean energy transition and policy. The conference brought together top government functionaries at the local, state, and federal levels; experts; researchers; clean energy policymakers; and stakeholders from across Nigeria, Africa, and around the world.

In 2024, ABUAD’s OGEES Institute has continued to lead innovative research projects that inform and support government policies on clean energy and energy-efficient technology development.
The Institute publishes the Journal of Sustainable Development Law and Policy, the leading refereed journal in Nigeria that provides authoritative analysis on clean energy and sustainability policies. The thematic focus of the journal spans across broad areas of sustainable development law and policy, ranging from the economic, social, and environmental dimensions. As such, papers that explore broad themes of sustainable development such as environment, natural resources, green economy, international trade, banking, taxation, public policy, public-private partnerships, alternative dispute resolutions, peace, and conflict studies are normally given top consideration.
In addition, the university organizes workshops, seminars, and events that inform and support government policies on clean energy and energy-efficient technology development.
