UK Renewables Break New Records As Electricity Bills Drop!

A recent publication (new figure) by the U.k indicates that renewable electricity generation in 2015 increased by 83.3 TWh, a 29% higher that 2014’s 64.7 TWh, resulting in drastic fall in electricity bills.
According to the report, wind energy grew 26%, currently powering 9.8 million households in the UK. Solar output increased to 86%, while bioenergy grew a modest 28%. 
Due to the closure of numerous coal mines around the country, coal output was  at 27% lower than it was in 2014. Indicating that coal imports are dropping 39%, as generators’ demand for coal fell 24%, reportedly its lowest level ever.
With an almost 0% electricity supply all over the country, why cant this be replicated in Nigeria?
