Many experts believe that old equipment, small capacity and poor maintenance affect the power grid and lose light for transportation.

GENCO board member Heather Onoah says the lack of transportation facilities is one of the main problems causing the network to collapse.

“We don’t have enough transmission facilities, nor a network that will carry this energy with them,” she added.

“So sometimes the power even flows back into the system, which causes everything to disperse.”

To end electric power in Nigeria, experts say Nigeria needs to modernize and repair parts of the electricity system and start using modern methods, especially like solar energy and other alternative sources of power electric.

An expert, John Adebayo, an electrical engineer, said it was important to explore different ways to help improve lighting in Nigeria.

“A lasting solution for Nigeria, which can even extend the reach of ODA countries.”

I add: “The power solution is simple, requires us to use a hybrid style, fix all the bad equipment in the way that carries light consumers and create a hybrid system. »

Anoda expert, Victoria Ibrahim, a renewable energy specialist, told the BBC that if Nigeria used solar or hydroelectric power with proper work, it would be a change in electricity for the country.

“If we try things like decentralization, let’s use renewable energy from waste, small hydro or solar power with suitable works,” she said.

She adds: “Some of these methods give us the reliable and stable energy we need for Nigeria.”
