PEAK DEMAND FORECAST (CONNECTED + SUPPRESSED LOAD)= 19,798.00MW @ 0100HRS

HIGHEST GENERATION=4,017.30MW@ 0100HRS

LOWEST GENERATION=61.90MW @ 0400HRS (0241Hrs, there was Partial System Collapse due to fire outbreak at Afam III Power Station)

Remark: Energy gap between peak demand forecast and highest generation is a pointer to the huge INVESTMENT opportunities in the power sector in Nigeria.

N.B.: This comparative data is very conservative when the energy situation in Nigeria (14,000MW installed generation capacity) is juxtaposed with nations like Brazil (181,532MW installed generation capacity) that has similar demographic characteristics.
