The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), has boosted power transmission in Rivers State with the commissioning of new 150MVA Power transformer at Afam IV 330/132/33KV transmission substation.

TCN’s addition of the new transformer in its Port Harcourt Region has doubled the substation’s transformation capacity from 120MVA to 240MVA, according to a statement by the management.

The project has significantly enhanced TCN’s transmission capacity to Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Companys (PHEDC) load center, enabling the DisCo to off-take more electricity for onward distribution to electricity consumers in Port Harcourt metropolis and its environs.

The project constitutes part of the ongoing TCN-World Bank power projects aimed at enhancing the nation’s power supply.
