By Daniel Dafe
The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has successfully restored normal bulk electricity supply to the Northeast after completing the connection of the new Bauchi 330/132kV Transmission Substation to the national grid, through the 330kV and 132kV Jos-Bauchi-Gombe Transmission Lines.
GM, Public Affairs, Ndidi Mbah, said this in a statement on Sunday.
According to him, “the lines were initially switched off to enable TCN to energize the new Bauchi Substation – one of the biggest substations in the region – to the grid.”
Adding: “The transmission lines have now been reconnected back to the grid.”
He said further: “Consequently, supply to the northeast has been restored since the 19th of June at about 16:45 hours.
“With the project completed, bulk power transmission has been restored to Jos and Yola Electricity Distribution Companies, which supply electricity to customers in Bauchi, Gombe, Yobe, Damaturu, Adamawa, and Taraba States.
