National Grid Successfully Restored after Collapse
The Transmission Company of Nigeria has announced that the national grid has successfully restored about 90 per cent of bulk power supply across its substations nationwide, following a system collapse that plunged the country into a blackout. Its spokesperson Ndidi Mbah in a statement late yesterday, explained that bulk power supply has been restored to the Abuja axis and other major distribution load centres throughout the country. She noted that while recovery efforts began immediately, there was a setback at approximately 10:24 AM on Tuesday, but the TCN has made significant progress in the recovery process, ensuring that about 90 per cent of its substations nationwide now have bulk power availability. Mbah clarified that the partial disturbance did not impact the Ibom Gas generating station, which had been isolated from the grid.
