FIRE-INDUCED PARTIAL GRID DISTURBANCE NOW RESTORED

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) announces the full restoration of the national grid following a fire incident at the Afam Power Generating Station, which caused a partial disturbance of the nation's grid.

At 02:41Hours today, 15th April, 2024, a fire erupted at the Afam V 330kV bus bar coupler, leading to the tripping of units at Afam III and Afam VI. This resulted in a sudden generation loss of 25MW and 305MW respectively, destabilizing the grid and causing a partial collapse.

During the incident, the Ibom Power Plant was isolated from the grid and was supplying parts of the Port Harcourt Region. This further minimized the effect of the system disturbance. TCN confirms that the affected section of the grid has been fully restored and stabilized.

TCN reaffirms its commitment to enhancing the resilience and reliability of the national grid and pledges to continue investing in measures aimed at further strengthening the grid infrastructure.

Minister of power, Mr. Adelabu is a first class product, i'll give him the benefit of doubt. This repair should be the quickest ever we have witnessed in the country.

There are places/power stations that are off grid and as was stated in the statement, Ibom Power Plant was isolated and still supplying power.
