Sokoto Plant To Generate Power At N178/kilowatt (more than 3x Regional Price) by Blue3k(m): 7:48pm On Dec 25, 2016 |
The Sokoto State power plant will generate electricity at N178 per kilowatt, more than three times its current price in the region, Daily Trust investigations have shown. Source: http://www.dailytrust.com.ng/news/general/sokoto-plant-to-generate-power-at-n178-kilowatt/174821.html 1 Like

Ordinary solar plant would have given these people free power but their addiction to Niger delta oil will not allow them 30 Likes 1 Share |

kettykin: No it wouldnt. Solar power is only help in the energy mix. Second solar is more expensive and power Is intermittent. If you look at various charts solar would offer a few 7 KW h per sq mt. Btw Niger Delta should be happy to help them. Just a reminder we're supposed to be on eachothers team. Then there is also Niger Rupblic as an option. Which they'll gladly take opportunity since we're interconnected with they're grid in multiple zones. My main gripe with article is how this would bring state to near constant power. Ikot Abasi grid produces 100 MW and didn't bring akwa ibom to near 24 hrs. Then there's also bigger independent power plants in all over Southern Nigeria with higher capacities even during worst bombing. They don't get those sort of results. Ps: The plant has a multiple type turbine that can use diesel, gas or LPFO. The cost can drop this is simply worst case scenario.

33000 litres of diesel daily? Is this a power plant or a big generator? Given that Nigeria is yet to have a functional refinery, importing huge amount of diesel to fuel the plant is a massive waste of forex. 33 Likes 4 Shares |

Yet another example of the destructive policies of the previous administration in that state (Aliyu wamakko, PDP) In a state where there's an over abundance of sunlight, it's crazy the focus wasn't on solar power instead of this inefficient diesel run monstrosity. This country has long been led astray by bad leaders 4 Likes |

Blue3k: Well said bro, The Capacity of these power stations have always not translated to expected hours of use by end consumers. . It however beats one's imagination on how a power station of this magnitude can be constructed such that the effect of the cost of its source of fuel will make the power generated to be quite expensive 3 Likes |
