The power supply from the Nigeria Electricity Supply Industry ( NESI ) at the weekend dropped to 83,570.30mwh (2006mw), according to the Independent System Operator (ISO) of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
Its operational report of Sunday showed that the industry recorded a peak generation of 4,452mw and lowest generation of 3,041mw on the previous day.
The report also noted that “energy recorded on 22/09/2018 was 83,570.30MWH.” It, however, added that the generation at 06:00hour on Sunday was3,340mw.
The TCN, however, explained in a press statement that due to the tripping on fault of the Jos-Gombe 330kV Transmission Line, which had just undergone Annual Scheduled Maintenance, the North Eastern States including Bauchi, Gombe, Adamawa Borno, Yobe and Taraba are currently out of power supply.
