The commissioning of the 181-megawatt Geometric Power plant in Aba, Abia State, originally slated for February 24, has been rescheduled to February 26, 2024.
The announcement came from the company’s management citing unexpected developments prompting the change in plans. President Bola Tinubu is set to inaugurate the thermal plant alongside Aba Power Ltd, which will distribute electricity to nine out of 17 local government areas in Abia State.
Engineer Cliff Eneh, a senior manager with the defunct National Electric Power of Nigeria (NEPA), expressed pride in the government’s backing and highlighted Geometric Power’s unique position in the power sector, emphasizing its capability to both generate and distribute electricity, unlike other firms in the industry.
