The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has announced the successful restoration of full bulk power to its 132/33kV Apo Transmission Substation, following the relocation of eight 132kV and 33kV towers along the Kukwaba/Apo 132kV line in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja.
This relocation was necessitated by the Federal Capital Development Agency’s (FCDA) road dualization project along the Apo axis.
The two-week relocation work, which commenced on January 6, 2025, involved dismantling and reconstructing the towers, as well as restringing power cables. With the restoration of full bulk power, Abuja DisCo can now provide normal electricity supply from the substation to its customers in the affected areas, ending the previous load rationing.
The TCN has expressed appreciation for the patience and understanding of the affected electricity consumers during this period. “TCN appreciates the patience and understanding of the affected electricity consumers during this period,” said Ndidi Mbah, General Manager (GM), Public Affairs, TCN, in a statement.
The successful restoration of power to the Apo substation is a significant milestone in the TCN’s efforts to ensure reliable and efficient transmission of electricity across the country.
