The
Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) last night said that
nationwide power generation had again began to rise and was at 4387 megawatts
(MW) as at yesterday evening.
NERC
said that this came about following the successful completion of repair works
on the recently damaged gas facility which provides gas feedstock to thermal
generation plants in the country.
“Electricity
supply through the national grid is now ramping up as it attains 4,387
megawatts peak generation as at Friday, March 4, 2016 with prospect for further
improvement in power supply situation,” the NERC said in a statement from its
spokesperson, Dr. Usman Arabi in Abuja.
