More mobile substations acquired under the Federal Government-Government Siemens deal are being installed in parts of the country to boost the wheeling capacity of the transmission network, the federal government has said.
Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu who just inaugurated the mobile substations in Lagos and Birnin Kebbi, says the infrastructure stands as a beacon of hope for businesses and households towards achieving uninterrupted power supply.
The two Substations installed have a total wheeling capacity of 123 megawatts which is expected to enhance electricity supply.
Adelabu describes the project as a testament to the renewed hope agenda of President Bola Tinubu in accelerating the delivery of the Siemens project thereby transforming the power sector.
The minister implores Nigerians to safeguard the infrastructure against vandalization as the success of government interventions in the sector hinged on collective responsibility.
