- Tetracore Energy expands CNG infrastructure in Benin, and it positions the new Uwusan station as a key hub for cleaner transport fuel distribution.
- The company also strengthens Nigeria’s gas mobility network with scalable supply systems, while it prepares a mother station to boost reliability and capacity.
Tetracore Energy Group has launched a new auto-compressed natural gas station in Uwusan, Benin City, in Edo State. The company said the facility will support gas-powered mobility and improve downstream gas distribution.
The station has a capacity of 120,000 standard cubic metres per day. As a result, it can fuel about 200 vehicles daily, including buses, trucks, and commercial fleets. In addition, it is designed to serve Benin City and nearby industrial corridors.
Tetracore Energy Group explained that the project supports its broader strategy to build a corridor-based gas infrastructure network. Therefore, it links high-demand urban and industrial clusters to improve supply reliability.
The company also noted that the Benin axis has strong logistics and industrial demand. Consequently, it expects high utilisation and stable long-term revenue from the asset.
Furthermore, the Uwusan station is expected to lower fuel costs and improve energy security. It will also support cleaner transport options and align with Nigeria’s decarbonisation goals.
In addition, the company is developing a CNG mother station to support the new facility. Once completed, it will increase compression capacity and improve overall network efficiency.
Olakunle Williams said the project goes beyond infrastructure deployment. He explained that it builds a resilient energy network that supports cleaner and more efficient fuel use across transport and industry.
