A locally owned power company in Nigeria, Onose Tbea Energy, plans to build a 400 MW gas-fired power plant at Ekrokpe in Delta state. The plant, whose work has already been launched, is expected to deliver its first megawatts of power within 18 months.
The plant is being constructed in such a way as to allow for an expansion in capacity at a later date.
“The Nigerian government is still struggling to produce the energy needed for its development and for improving the living environment of its people. But we are confident that with the private sector, we will be able to face this challenge more serenely and that these much needed capabilities can be put in place in the near future,” said Ifeanyi Okowa, the governor of Delta state.
