**Boost for Lagos Power: 300MVA Transformer Commissioned at Egbin Substation** Nigerians, especially those in Lagos, can now breathe a sigh of relief as the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has successfully commissioned a new 300MVA power transformer at its Egbin Transmission Substation. Located in the heart of Lagos, the substation plays a crucial role in transmitting power to the region, which is home to a large population and a growing number of businesses. The commissioning of the new transformer on February 22, 2025, has increased the substation's total capacity from 300MVA to 450MVA. This significant upgrade is expected to improve the availability of bulk electricity for Ikeja Electricity Distribution Company, which serves parts of Lagos and its surrounding areas. The impact of this upgrade will be felt directly by customers in Ikorodu, Shagamu, Ijede, and surrounding areas, who can now expect a more stable and reliable power supply. The Egbin Transmission Substation is one of the key points in the transmission network that serves the EKEDC. With the new transformer in place, the substation can now handle a higher capacity, ensuring that power is transmitted efficiently and effectively to the region. This upgrade is expected to enhance network flexibility, support economic growth, and contribute to a more stable grid. According to TCN officials, the project was completed in-house by TCN engineers in just six weeks, reflecting the company's commitment to strengthening the national grid and ensuring reliable power delivery for all Nigerians. This achievement is a testament to the team's hard work and dedication to delivering quality services to the nation. The commissioning of the new 300MVA transformer at Egbin Substation is a welcome development for Lagos residents, who can now expect a more stable and reliable power supply. As the nation continues to grapple with the challenges of power distribution, initiatives like this one are a step in the right direction towards achieving a more stable and efficient power supply system.
