The national grid collapsed again on Tuesday September 19, 2023, with power generation dropping from a peak of 3,594.60 megawatts (MW) to 42.7MW at midday.
This comes barely five days after the grid collapsed twice within a space of more than 12 hours leaving the nation in total darkness
The Transmission Company of Nigeria has not yet released a statement on the cause of the collapse. Still, it is likely due to inadequate infrastructure, gas supply problems, and transmission system constraints. Adelabu, who spoke at this year’s Nigeria Energy Summit in Lagos, said he had diagnosed the issues to a large extent, and found out that the solutions were not as difficult as people believe.
