Sincere 9gerian: 140 megawatts to be built at $201 million. $201 million is equals to N32 billion.

If we divide N32 billion by 140 megawatts we'll get N230 million per megawatt.

Can we compare the N230 million per megawatt in Bauchi state versus the N400 million per megawatt in Lagos? Who will deliver Lagos from the thieving duo of Tinubu and Fashola? What sins did Lagosians commit to warrant this mindless raping of their resources? Who will deliver my brothers and sisters in Lagos?

Gbawe.:


What is this long-winded nonsense you are trying to deceive others with? 140MW produced at £201 million is $1.44 million per MW. The Oando delivery is 10.34MW IPP built for N3.2 billion or $20 million. This gives $1.93 million per MW. Aside the fact both cost fall within an acceptable range (up to as much as $4 million per MW) and that many legitimate factors (fuel type for example) can vary construction cost, you would have to be illiterate not to know that economies of scale in power generation alone can account for the difference seen. You say you are a medical doctor yet you do not appear to be even decent at thinking critically or effectively. I pity anyone you 'treat'.

Sincere 9gerian:
Liar! What I can see in the report is $201 million (not £201 million). And please do the calculations in our currency (naira) so people can appreciate the ONGOING looting spree in Lagos and other APC controlled states.

Ask the clever guys here , like Standing5, to explain the concept of economies of scale in power generation to you since I have no inclination to wastetime on the sort of ignorance that leads you to utter the m0r0nic 'one size fit all' notion that cost per MW should be same for all projects everywhere, with all fuel type and for all MW overall output. You say you are a medical doctor yet you do not appear to be even decent at thinking critically or effectively. I pity anyone you 'treat'.

Ok let's do this debate once for all.
Lagos state. : 400M/MW
Bauchi state. : 230M/MW
Agip okpai. : 150M/MW
FG Olorunsogo-I. : 93M/MW( 70KM where u aleady have gas pipelines.

Typo m0r0n. You are so 'thick'. A "Doctor' who sucks badly at basic maipulation of figures. Go back and see my post you quoted. Is $201 divided by 140 MW not $1.4 million per MW as I correctly calculated? If I had meant £201 million then my MW per million dollars would reflect this olodo. I.e £201 million becomes $320.77 million giving a rate of approximately $2.3 per MW. The correct $million per MW rate I calculated for both projects indicate you have no point yet are desperately trying to hold on to pedantism as your ignorance and poor thinking is exposed.

Alos, whether I work in Naira or dollars will not cure your mumuism in relation to the substantive issue. Clever folks know that comparison is still efficiently and easily discerned once MW per million (whether in Naira or dollars) is made in the same currency for both projects. You're actually worthless as a sycophant because of your dull thinking. I will wait for some more clever folks, with the patience to attempt educating a hopeless case like you, to show up and make more sense of things for you.

Sincere 9gerian:
So looting-induced tremor is now causing you to type £201 million (N52 billion) instead of $201 million (N32 billion)?

You and your thieving masters are so pathetic. Nothing can explain the massive difference between N230 million per megawatt in Bauchi state versus N400 million per megawatt in Lagos? Only looting, mindless looting!

gregg2: This Gbawe, This Gbawe, This Gbawe, This Gbawe, This Gbawe
Why are you like this sef?

On another thread, you had to dig up internet archives all in attempt to defend the thieving duo of Fashola and Tinubu for an obviously dubious scam of just 10MW Plant being built at 3.2 billion naira. Those rogues you are sticking your neck to defend will even be laughing at your ignorance of what transpired. It's annoying. Stop trying to justify such huge difference. See, those FG power plants that are a little above 200million per MW also included a staff quarters and schools since some are a distance away from the cities. I doubt that Fashola also built a staff quarters for his 10MW plant that is meant to power just Alausa secretariat.

Gbawe.:


Uneducated cretin. Even aside the many factors that can skew cost markedly between power generation projects, go and look into economies of scale in power generation and stop making a fool of yourself here. What a fraud. I honestly do not know any "doctor" as slow on the uptake as you are. God have mercy on Nigerians if you are truly a medical doctor.

homesteady:

Please can you tell us some of the factors?

Sincere 9gerian:
Dont mind the shameless Gbawe. Only an insane he-goat will try to defend the indefensible. N230 million per megawatt in Bauchi state versus N400 million per megawatt in Lagos? The difference is massive.

Economies of scale
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/38/Economies_of_scale.PNG/330px-Economies_of_scale.PNG[/img]
As quantity of production increases from Q to Q2, the average cost of each unit decreases from C to C1.

In microeconomics, economies of scale are the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to size, with cost per unit of output generally decreasing with increasing scale as fixed costs are spread out over more units of output. Often operational efficiency is also greater with increasing scale, leading to lower variable cost as well.

Economies of scale apply to a variety of organizational and business situations and at various levels, such as a business or manufacturing unit, plant or an entire enterprise. For example, a large manufacturing facility would be expected to have a lower cost per unit of output than a smaller facility, all other factors being equal, while a company with many facilities should have a cost advantage over a competitor with fewer.
Some economies of scale, such as capital cost of manufacturing facilities and friction loss of transportation and industrial equipment, have a physical or engineering basis.

Sincere 9gerian: 140 megawatts to be built at $201 million. $201 million is equals to N32 billion.

If we divide N32 billion by 140 megawatts we'll get N230 million per megawatt.

Can we compare the N230 million per megawatt in Bauchi state versus the N400 million per megawatt in Lagos? Who will deliver Lagos from the thieving duo of Tinubu and Fashola? What sins did Lagosians commit to warrant this mindless rapiing of their resources? Who will deliver my brothers and sisters in Lagos?

jliusadura: Cost of building power plants of the same capacity may vary depending on some factors like quality of materials used, expected life span among others. Why don't we buy generators of the same capacity but from different makers at the same price? Remember that Lagos power plant is not 'made in China' like that of Bauchi.

Goddex:

I hear. Do your findings and you will be surprised that Oando subcontracted it out to a Chinese firm

Gbawe.:


God !!! What a horrendously 'thick' clown and a fraudster. How can you be a "Doctor" , i.e a man of science, yet reject established theory with a well-established basis in research and engineering reality? What an ignoramus. Anyway, you fans of GEJ are not known to be anything but mediocre in all sense of the word.

hercules07:

Please factor in dual fired nature of Lagos plant.

homesteady:

Please can you tell us some of the factors?

Sincere 9gerian:
Nonsense! We know all that already. We'r talking of massive difference here- N230 million per megawatt in Bauchi state versus the N400 million per megawatt in Lagos.

lagosph:
What do u mean by dual fired nature? All the FG plants above are combine circle gas turbine dat means u reuse the heat from one stage to drive another stage, that means more power and more capital cost but its still less dan lagos generators

hercules07:

Lagos uses both diesel and gas to fire their plant, does the bauchi one use the same method? ?

emiye:

How did you arrive at N400 million per megawatts for lagos power plant, ? your calculation is fraudulent

Can we compare the N230 million per megawatt in Bauchi state versus the N400 million per megawatt in Lagos? Who will deliver Lagos from the thieving duo of Tinubu and Fashola? What sins did Lagosians commit to warrant this mindless rapiing of their resources? Who will deliver my brothers and sisters in Lagos?
