Transcorp Energy Plans Nigeria’s First Nuclear Power Plants

1 July 2021

Bloomberg

Nuclear Power Plant


Transcorp Energy Ltd, a unit of Transnational Corp. of Nigeria Plc plans to develop nuclear power plants in the West African nation as an alternative energy source to improve access to electricity.

The plants will offer a “less expensive and less complicated solution” for stable and reliable power generation in the country, using so-called OPEN100 model technology, the company said in an emailed statement Thursday.

Just over 55% of Africa’s largest economy’s population has access to electricity, according to World Bank data.

The plan has been presented to government.

Science and Technology Minister Ogbonnaya Onu has set up a committee comprising representatives of Transcorp and government to manage the execution of the project, according to the statement.

sharap, PDP should have done all these basics in 16yrs when the money plenty yafu yafu, but as usual, they rather use the money buy sport cars and properties in Dubai, today we would have been borrowing for sophisticated projects and not basics like rails and power.

I'm not against borrowing, I am pained that in 21st century, the biggest black nation on the globe is borrowing to give her people the basics cos of mismanagement by the govt

There are conditions a Nation has to meet before such Nation can be allow to involve in Nuclear power. As in.... You can just say you Want to get involved nuclear deal. World Power nations won't allow such reckless behavior....

I rest my case...

You should be ashamed of yourself...


This has gone beyond a party level as the same folks who were in PDP are now in APC... The same incompetent hands is what they are using today..

Again, your APC came to make changes, we've been waiting for that change... Seems they're following the footsteps of PDP..

I think Nigeria should take the leap and go nuclear.

Look, once we go nuclear, it ends the power crisis immediately.

South Africa has the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station, near Cape Town. That plant generates nearly 2,000 megawatts on its own, which is roughly HALF Nigeria's current daily generation.

We just need 2 or 3 solid nuclear power stations located in strategic parts of the country, and we can kiss goodbye to 'no light' forever.

Which world power nations?

No nation can stop Nigeria from building nuclear power plants if she decides to.

Stop confusing nuclear weapons programs, which are 'prohibited', with nuclear power generation.

Nuclear power plants are all operated according to very strict global standards, wherever they are built on Earth, and Nigeria will not be different.

You need UN IAEA approval to build it, and the direct waste of Nuclear power plant reactant is used for fussion nuclear bomb so approval isn't giving anyhow

PDP really took Nigeria for a ride and was busy making money,
If there is anything, current govt has done 70% of the foundations for the future, let's just fix power and insecurity then they have tried.
Agric, digital and transportation are three things the govt has really got a pass mark on, I still fault them on insecurities though

A joke of a government; you can't even manage hydro electric power generation properly and you are planning to venture into nuclear power for electricity generation....Chernobyl will be a child's play when Nigeria's gross mismanagement of critical infrastructure shows its ugly face. They should at least plan to locate the nuclear power plant in the north on the border between Nigeria and Niger Republic...lol grin

Topic says "buhari to build".

The actual story says "transcorp energy to build".

OP, mind urself o..... Even though we know generation is not Nigeria's electricity problem but transmission and distribution.

But Buhari has to approve it before it's built, so it's really his deal.
