NISO explains reduced power allocations to Lagos, Abuja, North

The Nigerian Independent System Operator (NISO) has clarified recent reductions in electricity allocations to Distribution Companies (DisCos) serving Lagos, Abuja, and northern parts of the country. This reduction was attributed to multiple transmission line outages that constrained the capacity of the national grid. NISO stated that the outages forced them to adjust generation dispatch and power allocations to ensure the remaining transmission network operated within safe limits and to prevent a wider system disturbance.

The clarification came amid concerns over changes in power allocations to DisCos in some parts of the country.
