Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, has called for immediate action and a concrete plan to address the critical need for electricity in the state. Speaking at the opening of the Anambra State Electricity Market Investment Roundtable, Soludo emphasized that the state requires at least 1,000MW of electricity to support businesses, industrialization, and development.
Currently, Anambra is only receiving between 102 to 120MW from the national grid, leaving a significant gap between demand and supply. The governor assured stakeholders that Anambra is ready for business and is committed to creating an enabling environment for private-sector participation in the electricity market. Anambra State Electricity Regulatory Commission has developed a robust regulatory framework to support an effective electricity market in the state.
The roundtable aimed to generate a verifiable roadmap to close the electricity gap and foster economic growth in the state.
