Power is back in Taraba after a major transmission line fix. The Transmission Company of Nigeria restored electricity supply to Jalingo and surrounding areas following the completion of upgrade works. All required pre-commissioning tests and a mandatory soak period concluded successfully, allowing full restoration.
A planned outage was necessary for contractors to perform critical activities like line stringing. Work focused on energizing newly installed power transformers at two transmission substations. The project involved temporarily opening another line to facilitate extension and transfer works safely.
Upgrades will enhance the substations from a lower to a higher voltage capacity. This improvement aims to significantly boost power reliability and increase transmission capacity for the state and neighboring regions. The Yola Electricity Distribution Company stands as a major beneficiary.
The project supports rising electricity demand across the area. TCN commended consumers for their patience during the required outage. The company reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening the national grid for a reliable power supply nationwide.
