According to a reliable source who chose to remain anonymous, there have been discrepancies between the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) and DisCos data.</p> <p class="yiv4853927108MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">”In all of the load forecasts, from all the DisCos mentioned, the load that was actually successfully delivered to these DisCos are less than the load requested. For instance, Kaduna DisCo, in the 3<sup>rd</sup> week of May (17<sup>th</sup> to 23<sup>rd</sup> May 2021), forecasts an average of 266.13MW while the actual average energy delivered was 207.94MW with a deficit of 58.19MW. In addition, Enugu DisCo forecast 358.71MW for the 3<sup>rd</sup> week in May while 308.37MW was actually delivered to them within the same period the report covered, with 50.34MW deficit”, the source says.</span></p> <p class="yiv4853927108MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">”According to the SO data released for the same 3<sup>rd</sup> week in May 2021, the Average Energy Generated was 4,202.53MW while the Average Energy Sent Out was 4126.77MW. It was actually recorded that 1,578.53MW was Unutilized due to Gas Constraints while 398MW was Unutilized due to Low Load Demand from DisCos within the same period”.</span></p> <p class="yiv4853927108MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">”In my opinion, the data gotten from the SO as well as the information gotten from the DisCos does not tally with each other. Many of these data are not well captured; that’s why it is easy to erroneously quote or pick any convenient data from any platform and publish it in the media. There is no balance in this information; hence it’s always misleading, incorrect and inconsistent, which does not put the DisCos in good light to the public once published”.</span></p> <p class="yiv4853927108MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The source concluded that the stakeholders should tackle the challenge of load rejection and find a lasting solution. ”Load Rejection accusations between the DisCos, TCN and GenCos has been a perennial problem in the sector. We should have a way to tackle this once and for all whereby all the information can be verified and confirmed before pushing such to the public”, the source concluded.</span></p> <p class="yiv4853927108MsoNormal"><span lang="en-NG"> </span></p> <p>The post <a href="https://theelectricityhub.com/nigeria-discos-refute-claims-on-load-rejection/">NIGERIA: DisCos Refute Claims on Load Rejection</a> appeared first on <a href="https://theelectricityhub.com">The Electricity Hub</a>.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://theelectricityhub.com/nigeria-discos-refute-claims-on-load-rejection/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>2</slash:comments> <enclosure url="https://theelectricityhub.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/NG-DisCos-Refute.m4a" length="2166309" type="audio/mpeg" /> </item> </channel> </rss>
