TCN Boosts Grid Stability with New Ihovbor 330kV Transmission Links
The Transmission Company of Nigeria has commissioned new turn-in-turn-out connections on the Ihovbor/Benin and Ihovbor/Ajaokuta 330kV lines. This upgrade enhances power evacuation capacity from major generation sources. Both lines are now transmitting significant loads, with the Benin route carrying 200MW and the Ajaokuta line 90MW. The stronger corridor is expected to improve supply efficiency and support growing energy demand across the network. Analysts say better evacuation infrastructure is vital to unlocking Nigeria’s full generation potential and reducing grid disruptions. The move forms part of wider efforts to modernise the national transmission network.
