Nigeria, Abuja: The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has commissioned a 100 MVA transformer at the 132/33 kV Osogbo Transmission Substation in Osun State.
“The new transformer boosts the Substation’s capacity from 180 MVA to 280 MVA and enhances bulk power supply to the Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company, improving electricity distribution to IBEDC’s customers within Osogbo Township and surrounding areas. The 100 MVA power transformer project is part of TCN’s nationwide initiatives, undertaken in collaboration with the World Bank,” the company said.
The additional capacity could alleviate power shortages, reduce system downtime, and improve the reliability of electricity supply to businesses and households within the region. The transformer project is part of TCN’s broader transmission network expansion initiatives, being executed in collaboration with the World Bank. Through this partnership, TCN aims to strengthen Nigeria’s power transmission capabilities, eliminate bottlenecks, and improve overall grid stability.
