The Oworo 132/33kV Transmission Substation of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has undergone a significant upgrade with the installation of a new 60MVA power transformer along with its necessary accessories.
This development follows the replacement of the existing 30MVA power transformer within the substation.
The upgrade is anticipated to enhance the overall capacity of the Oworo Substation from 120MW to 144MW upon completion of the installation process.
The heightened capacity is poised to result in a substantial improvement in bulk electricity supply, particularly benefiting the Ikeja Distribution Company (DisCo).
The upgraded substation will play a vital role in meeting the growing energy demands of customers residing in the OGUDU, OWORO, and IGBOBI ENVIRONS of Lagos.
This transformative initiative is part of the collaborative efforts between the Transmission Company of Nigeria and the Central Bank of Nigeria, reflecting a commitment to advancing and modernizing the nation’s power infrastructure.
The project is expected to contribute significantly to the stability and efficiency of the region’s electricity supply network.
