Gas Supply Boost Lifts Nigeria’s Electricity Generation to 4,300MW

Nigeria’s electricity generation climbed from 3,951MW to 4,300MW between March 28 and April 10, the Federal Government announced. The boost came as gas supply to power plants rose from around 605 million standard cubic feet per day to over 704mmscfd. This improved plant performance and raised operational capacity from 4,208MW to 4,694MW. A Gas-to-Power Monitoring Committee has been set up to improve coordination and resolve delivery issues. The Nigeria Electricity Management Services Agency will expand meter testing centres and partner with NAPTIN to train more installers. President Tinubu approved a N3.3 trillion plan to clear decade-old power sector debts in phases. Some Nigerians, including a former state governor, question whether past funding will finally bring stable supply.
