TCN Shares Fresh Information On Recent National Grid Breakdown

TCN Shares Fresh Information On Recent National Grid BreakdownThe Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has clarified that the national grid collapse on Monday was partial. The incident, which occurred around 6:48 PM, left many parts of Nigeria without power.

The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company confirmed the grid failure through its spokesperson, Emeka Ezeh, while both Abuja Electricity Distribution Company and Eko Electricity Distribution Company also acknowledged the situation.

TCN reported that there was zero load allocation to the eleven Electricity Distribution Companies. However, the company has initiated recovery efforts to restore power supply. TCN spokesperson Ndidi Mbah shared this information with Daily Post.

Mbah explained that the national grid did not completely collapse, as the Akwa Ibom Generating Station was “islanded,” allowing it to continue supplying power through the Eket, Ekim, Uyo, and Itu 132kV substations. She described the event as a “partial system disturbance.”

“Recovery is currently ongoing and has progressed significantly,” she added. By the time of this report, power supply had been restored in several areas across the country.
