NDPHC Has Invested N500bn In Transmission Infrastructure, Says MD

The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC) Ltd., Engr. Jennifer Adighije has disclosed that the company has invested N500bn in Transmission Infrastructure.

Adighije spoke on Thursday when she led the company’s management team on an inspection tour of the 330/132/33kV Lafia Transmission Substation in Nasarawa State.

She said as a government intervention agency, NDPHC had invested approximately N500bn in developing transmission infrastructure and networks across the country.

“We are at the Lafia transmission substation, which is a project that was delivered by NDPHC and handed over to the transmission company of Nigeria. It’s a 330/132/33KV transmission substation, comprising two numbers 150 MVA transformers, two numbers 60 MVA transformers, and one by 75 MVA reactor.

“And as you can see, this is a project that was delivered to world-class standards. By every standard, this is one of the best that one can ever find internationally, in line with global best practices and standards.

“And as the mandates of the NDPHC were very clear in terms of our delivery of projects, because we are an entity essentially that provides backbone services for the sector, ensuring that we deliver projects that would impact the entire gas to electricity value chain.

“NDPHC has invested over N500bn in transmission projects, transmission lines, transmission infrastructure, line-bay extensions, transformers, substations, you name it, across the entire power sector.

“And despite the liquidity crisis that we are facing, we are here to reaffirm our commitment to Mr President’s Renewed Hope Agenda, which aims to scale power generation, transmission, and distributed access to electricity”, Adighije said.

She, however, debunked the claim that the company is unable to generate power optimally, stressing that the company has more capacity than transmission can carry.

“Let me put it to Nigerians, that for those that have been saying that the NDPHC is unable to generate optimally, the real issues are that we actually have a generation over the transmission availability.

“And therefore, at NDPHC, we are unrelenting, we are undeterred, and will continue to dedicate resources to ensure that we scale transmission to evacuate the stranded generation that we have”.

Adighije, who also led the team on a courtesy visit to the Governor of Nasarawa State, Engr Abdullahi Sule, thanked him for his support to
the company.

The NDPHC MD was accompanied on the visit by the Executive Director Generation, Engr. Kassim Abdullahi, Executive Director, Legal Services, Dr. Steven Andzenge, and Executive Director, Networks, Engr. Bello Babayo Bello.
