      This research delves into the intricate landscape of sustainable energy adoption in Awka, Nigeria, with a particular emphasis on evaluating the suitability of implementing the Finnish system of electricity production. In the heart of this burgeoning city, the pressing challenges of waste management loom large, impacting both the environment and public health. The critical need for waste management improvement forms a core facet of this study. The study was commissioned by Savonia University of Applied Sciences. Quantitative research was conducted to analyse the question raised in course of this study, it was carried out momentarily and randomly in the span of one year. The aim was to accurately obtain a statistical analysis of the general community's views, preferences, and socioeconomic characteristics through the 137 locals who responded in participation to the research survey. The study findings uncovered a promising perception among respondents regarding the applicability of the Finnish system to meet Awka's burgeoning energy needs. Respondents believed that this system aligns harmoniously with the city's development goals, with existing infrastructure poised to support its implementation. The research also highlighted the potential economic and environmental dividends that may be reaped from adopting the Finnish system. Respondents expressed optimism that this transition can lead to a reduction in emissions, facilitate job creation, and bring about economic prosperity for Awka. In the quest for sustainable and progressive energy solutions, this study provided a valuable roadmap for Awka, environmental stewardship, and the realization of socio-economic aspirations. The research serves as a cornerstone for Awka's journey towards a more sustainable and prosperous future, characterized by cleaner energy, reduced environmental impact, and economic growth.
