VICE-PRESIDENT Yemi Osinbajo, on Thursday, said the country’s independent power plants (IPP) across the landscape have an installed capacity of over 12,000 megawatts, adding, however, that 5,000 megawatts of the total capacity could be transmitted due to inadequate gas supply to the plants.
Osinbajo said this at the National Forum on the Economy, organised by Vintage Press, publishers of The Nation Newspapers, with the theme: “National Economy: The Way Forward,” in Lagos.
The event, held at Lagos Airport Hotel, Ikeja, was attended by other dignitaries, including the Lagos State governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode; his Imo State counterpart, Chief Rochas Okorocha, among others.
