Seyi Adewunmi, President of the Lagos Country Club, outlined strategic priorities for Nigeria to achieve sustainable and affordable electricity for its 230 million residents. During the Business Forum 3.0 in Lagos, Adewunmi emphasized that solving the country's power crisis is crucial for industrialization and employment creation. Adewunmi outlined several key priorities:
1. Strengthening electricity generation through reliable gas supply, robust infrastructure, proper maintenance of existing power plants, and a balanced mix of gas-fired, hydroelectric, and renewable energy sources.
2. Addressing bottlenecks in transmission and distribution, as generated electricity remains ineffective if it cannot efficiently reach homes and businesses. Adewunmi stressed the need to accelerate investments in transmission lines, substations, transformers, distribution networks, and modern grid management systems.
3. Reducing technical and commercial losses in the existing power infrastructure.
