It has enabled all the subnational governments, the state government and the local government, to be able to participate in the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity. We all rely on a single national grid today; if there is a disturbance of the national grid, it affects all 36 states. It shouldn\u2019t be like that. This will enable us to start moving gradually towards having regional groups and possibly having state grids.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cAnd each of these grids will be removed and shielded from each other. So, if there\u2019s a problem with a particular grid, only the state where it belongs will be affected, not the entire nation. So, this is one of the impacts this Electricity Act will have.\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n<p>Despite these plans, Adelabu acknowledged that grid collapses will continue unless there is substantial investment in the sector.<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on recent events, the minister pointed out that Nigeria had experienced no grid collapses in the past four months until a collapse occurred again on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>We keep talking about grid collapse. Grid collapse, grid collapse, whether it\u2019s a total collapse, partial collapse, or slight trip-off. This is almost inevitable as it is today, given the state of our power infrastructure, the infrastructure is in deplorable conditions, so why won\u2019t you have trip-offs? Why won\u2019t you have collapses, either total or partial? It will continue to remain like this until we can overhaul the entire infrastructure. What we do now is to make sure that we manage it.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cIn the last four months, we have not heard of any grid collapse, except two days ago when we had a partial collapse that didn\u2019t even last two hours. So, what we work on now is how to improve our response time, to bring it up each time it collapses. There are transformers of 60 years old, and 50 years old, and you\u2019re expecting them to perform at the optimal rate. It is not possible. That is why we need a lot of investments in this infrastructure to bring them up to speed, to bring them up to the state that can give us a grid that will not collapse again<\/em>,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Adebayo Adelabu, Nigeria&#8217;s Minister of Power, warns that the national electricity grid will continue to face collapses due to poor infrastructure.
