They also inspected the plant’s 330/132 kilovolt (kV) switchyard and the Takum 2×60 MVA, 132/33kV transmission substation. The Project Manager in the Ministry of Power, Engr Ali-Dapshima Abubakar who conducted them around the project sites said the Kashimbilla Hydropower was upgraded from 6MW to 40MW. He said the dam and the hydropower components were completed since October 17, 2017; the evacuation project was at 90% level in June, 2019 and will be ready for power generation soon.

It is more of an irrigation, flood control and a water project than power. But Nigerians care about power more so….. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

40mw chimoooooo Restructure this country and let every region generate its own electricity and see if we won't have steady power. Power will bring investors. A state like Imo State alone is capable of generating 4000mw with its gas reserve. We know what to do but it must be business as usual. 27 Likes 4 Shares |

lilfreezy: The process of restructuring, even if started today will yield the desire results in decades, not the next 2 or 3 years. The same with effort to increase power supply, it will take more than 10 years for Nigeria to achieve stable 24 hours electricity. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Eastern region as a whole is replete with gas for industrialization while the northern region should use dams for hydroelectricity and irrigation for agriculture A win-win situation for all. 4 Likes 1 Share |

sonnie10: You’re right. The natural dams and waterfalls in the south lack the required vertical water load component and other criteria for effective dam construction. You will however notice that all the thermal electricity generation stations are in the south. Since you are a bigot you will not see logic or technical reasoning. 7 Likes 3 Shares |
