The move to ensure steady electricity supply in the country has received a boost as Cummins Cogeneration Limited and Sapele Power Plc have signed a Power Purchase Agreement in London, the United Kingdom.
The Chairman, Cummins Cogeneration
Limited, Mr. Deepak Khilnani, said the pact was part of the company’s
plans to build one of Africa’s largest gas-fired power plants of 300 megawatts capacity.
He said in a statement on Thursday that
the partnership came just weeks after Cummins signed an agreement for a
similar investment in Ghana.
Khilnani expressed hope that the synergy
between the two firms had the capacities that would deliver a clean and
sustainable long-term solution for Nigerians.
