As part of the ongoing rehabilitation projects to boost power supply nationwide, the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), has commissioned two new 100/125MVA power transformers.
The Company in a statement on Thursday said, the Commissioning took place at its 330/132/33kV Alagbon Transmission Substation in Lagos State.
According to TCN, the commissioning of the 2×100/125 MVA power transformers has increased the capacity of the substation from 240MVA to 440MVA and enhanced more bulk power transmission to Eko DisCo for offtake to its customers in Ikoyi, Victoria Island, Banana Island, some parts of Lagos Island and Lekki.
The commissioning was done barely 24 hours after the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) approved new tariffs for the Distribution Companies (DisCos).
The new tariffs should motivate the DisCos to give a commensurate supply of electricity to their customers.
