The country is currently losing 2,042.2 megawatts of electricity due to gas supply shortage and poor water management.

The 411 G2 and G4 units of the Shiroro hydro power plant are currently losing 300MW, while the loss of 1,742.2MW is attributed to gas supply shortage at various legacy gas-fired power plants, including the National Integrated Power Project plants.

The information on the loss was contained in the daily broadcast of the Transmission Company of Nigeria obtained by our correspondent on Tuesday.

The AES barges 202-205 and 207-211 in Lagos are currently losing 288MW due to gas-related problems, while the Geregu NIPP GT 21 and 23 units have lost 290MW.

According to the TCN, the Rivers IPP GT1 is losing 160MW, while the Ihovbor GT2 has a deficit of 112.5MW.

The Omotosho NIPP GT1 and 4, and Sapele ST2 units are said to be losing 240MW and 70MW, respectively.

The Egbin ST1 and 3 units have capacity to generate 660MW, but are currently doing 467MW; meaning a loss of 193MW.

The Omotosho Gas GTI, 3, 5-8 units have a combined capacity of 228MW, but are doing 146.2MW; thus recording a loss of 81.8MW.

Also, the Olorunsogo Gas GT1-4, 7 and 8 units, with capacity for 228MW, are generating just 161.1MW and losing 66.9MW due to gas shortage.

Peak generation for the country as of Tuesday was put at 3,865.4MW, while 3,331.5MW was the figure for off-peak generation.

The Federal Government had shifted its earlier target of generating 6,000MW of electricity before the end of 2014 to this year.

The Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo, had said, “We have an outlook for 2015 to 2017. People are saying you people said you will do 6,000MW, yes! We have the capacity standing, we now have the gas standing and we are going to do that shortly within this year. But beyond that; by 2016, we expect to get up to 10,000MW; and by 2017, to get 12,500MW.”

The mid-January statistics obtained from the ministry showed that peak generation on Wednesday was 4,405.6MW; energy generation, 4,000.63MW; and the energy sent out was 3,914.60MW. Peak demand was, however, put at 12,800MW.

On gas pipelines vandalism, Nebo also said the country lost an average of 1,000MW in 2014 as a result of the activities of vandals.

Her mind is not strong enough to carry criticism.

You know Nigerians, imagine the way the president is been insulted and cursed.

She took those abusive words personal. Politics is air your view and turn deaf ears to critics.

She's not ripe for politics.

You don't use emotional to play politics.

OBJ Speaks about Buhari`s Certificate
issue……………………
The truth of the matter is that Jonathan is aware that
Buhari is qualified to contest for President Election but some
hawks with Jonathan, do not want him to contest
because they believed that he will win and come for them.
The issue came up in 2007, and we investigated and found out
that his
WASEC is with the military and that was why he was allowed to
contest in 2007. Buhari cannot listen to anyone about his
certificates because as a General of Nigeria Army, he will
speak when he chooses not by Femi Fani Kayode
and Okupe asking him. Fayose and other corrupt people
including Kashamu do not want Buhari because of his anti-
corruption slogan.
Even Jonathan did not finish his PhD
course but when it was presented we stated that, it does not
matter but many people do not know because it was PDP
thing.
I see Buhari as the next President and Jonathan is aware of
that, and that is the reason they are hitting him
everywhere to put confusion in his camp. But a General is
always a General…

Really cool.
