Background
In March 2019, it was reported the Gas and Power Investment Company (GPIC), a subsidiary of NNPC announced that “the power plants which are part of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation -NNPC’s Downstream Project transmission gas pipeline, will be in Abuja, Kaduna, and Kano, with a combined cycle of gas.”[7]
The generating stations would be sited close to transmission substations for easy evacuation of the electricity when they eventually become operational.[7]
In 2034, the plant is expected to come online.[8]
