Hurdles For Kaduna Power As FG Seeks N400m Diesel To Commission Turbines by Blue3k2: 1:55am On Jan 16, 2019 |
The Federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing (FMPW&H), is shopping for suppliers to procure about 1.6 million litres of diesel with N400 million budget for the eight gas turbines at the 215 megawatts (MW) Kaduna Power Plant in Kaduna State.

The other puzzle is that the refinery itself did not operate up to 30 per cent of its capacity in 2018, data from the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) This paper reported that about 30 tankers of 33,000 litre capacity will be needed to run the power plant daily, which posed huge sustainability hurdle. Its the current year people should at least skim through the article. This plant has alot of issues. Unless they fix the Kaduna refinery or find reliable supplier it wont operate optimally. They poorly planned this project leaving issues for next man. The rail lines are better option instead of tankers. |

Blue3k2: At 30% of its capacity the Kaduna refinery can still supply diesel to the power plant. My thoughts. |

if this plant is to run on diesel.walahi they will cry! I have practical knowledge of what running a gas turbine with diesel feels like. it feels like running high pressure stream of water coming out of a small nozzle but in this case it is diesel.at the end the plant will be packed to one side |

docadams:how did you arrive at the insinuation that Kaduna refinery is even working |

baralatie: From news report quoting NNPC sources? |

This is the kind of trash that Saint Obasanjo used our $16 dollars to buy, instead of spending a quarter of it on the Mambila hydro power plant that will not run on gas. |

docadams:According to Nnpc report Kaduna refinery has been dormant since Feb 2018 or so and has been posting huge losses |

baralatie: Well, other options have to be exploited e.g. by ships to Baro river port from Warri and PH refineries.. |

Blue3k2: They should have built an electricity power plant that makes use of steam and not diesel. Steam produced using diverse types of fuels to heat up high pressure boilers. Types of Fuels 1) Biogas 2) Natural Gas 3) Coal 4) Woods 5) Diesel 6) Etc. |
