Electricity generation in Nigeria falls by 561MW in 24 hours

The nation’s electricity generation declined by 560.6 megawatts on Thursday, worsening the blackouts experienced in parts of the country.

Total generation from the 27 power plants on the national grid stood at 3,056MW as of 6am on Thursday, down from 3,617.5MW on Wednesday, according to data from the Nigeria Electricity System Operator.

Electricity generation in the country has been hovering between 3,000MW and 4,000 MW as a result of gas constraint, transmission line issues and low demand by electricity distribution companies.
