francizy: I just dey look the idiots all of them. Egbin LIKE ANY OTHER POWER STATION, has multiple generating units and each of them has the ability to evacuate power generated individually. In the case of Egbin there are six(6) such generating units each of them with 200 Mega Watt electricity production capaciity,one of which was damaged in an explosive accident in 2006 and only brought back to service and commissioned by President Goodluck Jonathan in February or march this year bringing Egbin to its full capacity (of 1200Mega Watts) for the first time in NINE(9) YEARS. Now you have to know that in power systems we rarely ( if ever ) run all generating plants at maximum capacity so we derate (Derating is a technique usually employed in electrical power and electronic devices, wherein the devices are operated at less than their rated maximum power) Which explains the stated generating capacity of 1100Mega Watts. What's my point? In 2009 one generating unit experienced a partial prompt catastrophic rapid disassembly yet the plant (the remaining 5 units) was/were still generating electricity albeit at diminished capacity. There isn't one single unit some fool can throw a spanner or whatever into and shut the whole plant down. The people peddling that story and especially the journalist and editor who published it have no business around any industrial environment to say the least of a power station so either they lied or they are just as ignorant and idiotic as those on this thread who bought into this bullsh1t story. Mind that i do not dispute the claim of sabotage , i am just saying that the narrative currently going around is wackd. But what do i know, ignorant idiotic people elected an even more ignorant fella as president so....... 6 Likes 5 Shares |

atlwireles: As in ehh, this whole APC and messiah and body It is easier to fool someone than to convince them that they have been fooled....(forgot the name of the man/woman that said that). Besides did we just hear apc folks putting the blame on sabotage? [size=18pt]How dare they use an excuse that is the sole prerogative of the Goodluck administration. [/size] Do you Atlwireless not remember them repeatedly deride Jonathan and his government when they reported on the activities of saboteurs ? I am waiting to see and hear of the arrest of the saboteur. 1 Like 1 Share |

Wrong move by the employee Two wrongs do not make a right, now that the deed has been done, baring any serious damage to the plant, all the former staff would now be treated as security risk to the plant and ejected accordingly. They would be compensated definitely BUT they would have to move out. Sad the way we do things in this country. The MD I'm sure is an educated man who should know better than what he's did engaging hoodlums. He has further opened the plants to more dangers. Hoodlums would not stop demanding and if company do not obliged, then the plant suffers more sabotage He ought to have learned from the Niger Delta case naaau |

donTbone:if it wasn't for the past govt these people \ vandals wouldnbe PAST EMPLOYEES.... U guys abused GEJ when he privatised, voices like me told u the transition wud take a minimum of 3yrs b4 we start seeing good results, ie the eviction of those bastard phcn workers and total overhaul of all their quota system staffs. Its happening now and we know when it succeeds, ediots will come out and credit buhari for it. We know the dude is brainstorming on how to reverse the privatisation, so quota system can gve his ppl jobs, but thank GOd its statutorily backed up this time. So what yaradua did with transcorp cannot happen this tyme. 1 Like |

The development, it was learnt, followed an alleged sabotage by one of the former employees of the defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria who threw an object into the power plant and it tripped off. Lolz . . . . . . Shey na Thor hammer dem throw inside 3 Likes |

Obiagelli: Obiagelli: You believed a single unidentified object tossed into a single compartment of turbines working independently of each other can lead to a total breakdown of a plant with a 1,100MW capacity. Yet you mocked news which revealed sabotage from gas pipeline vandals as a reason for a drop in our power generation capacity |

EMANY01: I feel this engineer in the house, setting the records straight, no ambiguities. and taking into consideration redundancies. Not all generators at Egbin are being run at any given time. Atleast two are kept redundant so as to make do for peak and off-peak fluctuations, as well as generator servicing downtimes. Also, there's what is called installed capacity, running capacity and generated capacity. What we all hear about Egbin is the installed capacity which is 1320MWatts, that is 6 x 220Mwatts. Redundancies account for Running capacity while Losses account for actual generated capacities. So in the real sense, Egbin does not generate 1320MegaWatts but if we maxxed to the limit, we can get 1320MW. so op, nobody can throw OPC egg inside Egbin and cause blackout in naija, this is not the 80's |
Re: Power Generation Drops By 1,100mw As Egbin Workers’ Crisis Persist by EMANY01(m): 11:56am On Oct 09, 2015 |
predatorX: I was a bit concerned that they were running all the units at the same time i thought the units were rated at 200 but clearly what they chose to do was to circle one unit off while the remaining five are running . "That OPC egg line got me laughing hard". 2 Likes |
