In a statement issued by Ndidi Mbah, the General Manager of Public Affairs at TCN, it was revealed that the newly acquired transformers, ranging in capacities from 60MVA to 100MVA, along with their associated accessories, are integral components of the ongoing TCN/World Bank power projects. This initiative reflects a commitment to fortifying the nation’s power transmission network.

The distribution plan for these transformers involves deploying them to key substations in the Lagos area, including Alausa 132/33kV Transmission Substation, Akoka 132/33kV Transmission Substation, Maryland 132/33kV Transmission Substation, Itire 132/33kV Transmission Substation, and Amuwo 132/33kV Transmission Substation.

Ndidi Mbah emphasized that each of the aforementioned substations, with the exception of Akoko 132/33kV Substation and Amuwo 132/33kV Substation, is set to receive one transformer. In contrast, Akoko and Amuwo substations are slated to benefit from two transformers each.

Upon installation, these transformers are anticipated to significantly augment TCN’s transmission capacity, contributing to an improved and more reliable power supply for the region. This development aligns with TCN’s broader efforts to modernize and strengthen the nation’s electricity infrastructure in collaboration with international partners like the World Bank.
