The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu has said that the President Bola Tinubu led-administration will achieve 20,000 megawatts of power generation in the next three years.
Adelabu disclosed this at the 2023 Nigeria Energy Summit in Lagos.
The Minister, who expressed that he had diagnosed the issues to a large extent and found out that the solutions were not as difficult as people believe, insisted that President Bola Tinubu administration will meet the target by 2026.
“As a politician, a Minister of Power, I also have a limited amount of time to spend, and I must make impacts. I am determined to make impacts. I have diagnosed the issues to a large extent, and I’ve found out that the solutions are not as difficult as we all believe.
“In setting targets for ourselves, we also need to set short-term targets. My own vision is for us to increase the stored capacity of our generation to at least 20,000 megawatts in the next three years. And it doesn’t stop there.
“We should be able to evacuate and transport this power at the minimum of 80 per cent of the stored capacity to the end users of the exchange system,” Adebayo Adelabu said.
