What is Nigeria's on-grid electricity demand?
Nigeria’s on-grid electricity demand is about 4-12 times the total electricity distributed on the grid. The national grid is designed to function under controlled limits to ensure stable grid operations. Exceeding the limits leads to instability – and often leads to collapse.
What is the Nigerian national electricity grid?
The Nigerian national electricity grid is a network of generation companies, distribution companies and the Transmission Company of Nigeria. Private companies are allowed to generate and distribute electricity.
Can Nigeria's electricity grid meet the growing population?
In one study, we found that without diversifying Nigeria’s electricity mix and improving efficiency, the current grid network would be unable to meet electricity demand for Nigeria’s growing population. Nigeria’s on-grid electricity demand is about 4-12 times the total electricity distributed on the grid.
How bad is Nigeria's electricity grid?
This translates to a loss of about US$28 billion in GDP. There are also health risks from the emissions of inefficient petrol generators, which are widely used in Nigeria. It is estimated that electricity generator sets consume $22 billion worth of fuel yearly. The grid collapsed twice in March 2022 within 48 hours.
How many times has Nigeria's electricity grid collapsed?
Nigeria’s national electricity grid has collapsed more than 200 times in the last nine years, regularly resulting in widespread blackouts. The power outages, which prevent people from meeting routine business and household needs, result in huge economic and social costs.
