Enugu Starts Three New 33kV Feeders, Targets 20-Hour Daily Power Supply
Enugu State has started work on three 33kV electricity feeders from the Transmission Company of Nigeria station in Ugwuaji. The project is intended to reduce prolonged outages in Nkanu East, Nkanu West, Awgu and Aninri LGAs. The existing Amechi feeder serves several communities across Enugu and extends into parts of Ebonyi State. Its length has made faults difficult to locate and repair. The new arrangement will create dedicated feeders for Nkanu East and Nkanu West, while the Amechi feeder will be reconfigured for Awgu and Aninri. The state also plans four injection substations, smart prepaid meters and automated fault-monitoring technology. Officials say the intervention is aimed at restoring power to communities that have been without electricity for years and delivering an average of more than 20 hours of daily supply when completed.
