Peak generation ever attained remains 5,074 megawatts.It was learned that the issue of inadequate gas supply to the generation companies, occasioned by activities of militants has continued to affect the improved generation of electricity in the country.
Nigeria is estimated to have the ninth largest gas reserves at 180,105 billion standard cubic feet, but this has not been leveraged to meet Nigeria’s electricity requirements.
