According to the press release, the facility’s goal is to eliminate transmission/distribution interface bottlenecks across the nation in order to increase end-user supply and free up idle generation capacity.

“PMO has made progress with the program’s implementation, despite challenges encountered, and is committed to ensure the program’s successful implementation by June 2024 at the latest,” the statement continued.
Stakeholders in the projects will also be present for the planned inspection tour during the week to examine the delivered equipment and a few chosen project locations in Lagos.
