PEAK DEMAND FORECAST (CONNECTED + SUPPRESSED LOAD)= 19,798.00MW @ 2000HRS 

HIGHEST GENERATION=5,263.80MW@ 2000HRS

LOWEST GENERATION=3,995.35MW @ 0500HRS

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.
