The Nigeria Electricity Supply Industry (NESI) from December 28th to January 2nd, recorded stable power supply of 4,143.87Megawatts from the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), recent figures from the Ministry of Power says.
During the period under review, power generation also remained unchanged at 4,241.39Mw, while peak energygeneration remained unchanged at 4,553.2Mw.
Meanwhile, of the 4,241.39Mw generated, TCN was only able to evacuate 4,143.87Mw leaving 97.52Mw stranded in the network.
Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, said TCN lacked the capacity to evacuate the total power that the generation companies (GenCos) produced to the distribution companies (DisCos).
He said: “We intend to strengthen this part of our responsibility so that we can hold the GenCos and DisCos to their contracts with the citizens.We must play our own role of providing gas and expanding the transmission network.”
