The TCN MD/CEO Dr, Sule Ahmed Abdulaziz has visited the Alausa Transmission Substation, where he inspected the substation’s control room and switchyard, including the newly commissioned 100/125MVA 132/33kV power transformer that was commissioned.
The new 100MVA transformer increased the substation’s capacity from 135MVA to 235MVA and made available more bulk power for Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company to offtake for its customers in Ikeja, Oregun, Alausa, Ojodu and environs.
The Alausa Transmission Substation is one of the transmission substations feeding Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company, whose transformer capacity was recently enhanced.
Meanwhile, Engr. Abdulaziz was at the Otta 132kV Transmission Sunstation, where a new100MVA transformer was equally commissioned with a second one currently being installed.
The projects are a part of the ongoing TCN – World Bank Projects aimed at transmission capacity expansion in Nigeria.
