Nigeria’s power generation Drops to 3,531 megawatts.

– Nigeria’s power generation yesterday, October 23 dropped to about 3, 531.7 megawatts (mw) – This will translate to a drop in supply sent out to the 11 Distribution Companies (DISCOs) across the country – This is based on statistics obtained from the Nigeria System Operator (NSO) The power generation in Nigeria yesterday, October 23 dropped further to about  3, 531.7 mw according to statistics from the Nigeria System Operator (NSO), a section of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).

While electricity generation peaked at 3,808.5mw, there was a significant drop the same day to 2,931.9mw. The Generation Companies (GENCOs) had earlier attributed the recent drops in the country’s generation to inadequate gas-to-power for the mostly gas-based power plants. According to the report, the highest system frequency recorded on the day under review was 51.62 Hz, while the lowest frequency was 48.87 Hz.

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Association of Nigerian Electricity Distributors, an umbrella body for the Discos, Azu Obiaya confirmed the move for tariff increase. Obiaya said the proposal for tariff increase is important in order to remain in business and provide good service to Nigerians. In the proposal, the Discos are seeking to increase current average energy charge of N22.8 per kilowatt-hour to either N70 or as high as N105. According to Vanguard, there are strong indications that the minister of power, works and housing, Babatunde Fashola, might be forced to increase electricity tariff by 20 per cent, in order to accede the request of the DISCOs. The planned increment is coming, not less than 8 months after the NERC had increased electricity tariff by 45 percent.

The gas cylinder pushes hydrogen into a cylinder of liquid borax, which is used to remove the moisture from the hydrogen gas. This purified hydrogen gas is pushed into the generator to produce electricity.
