The Federal Government has added 780MVA to Lagos State's power capacity with the inauguration of eight transformer projects across the city. These projects, which took place on Monday and Tuesday, include two 60MVA transformers at Apapa Transmission Substation, two 100MVA transformers at Ijora, a 100MVA transformer at Alausa, and a 300MVA transformer and two 60MVA transformers at Lekki Transmission Substation.
The Minister of Power, Joseph Tegbe, emphasized that these projects are part of the government's efforts to remove electricity constraints and unlock economic growth in key areas. The upgrades have effectively doubled the capacity of the 330/132/33kV transmission substation in Lekki, which serves one of Nigeria's fastest-growing economic corridors, and improved the reliability and availability of bulk electricity supplied to EKEDC for onward distribution to industries, businesses, and households.
