Fashola To Commission New 10mw Power Project

In continuation of the on-going transformation programme of his administration, Lagos State governor, Mr Babatunde Fashola (SAN), will on Wednesday, May 25, commission the 10 megawatts Island Power Project, (IPP) newly built as part of its proactive efforts to boost economic and social activities within and around the Lagos Island.

A press release on the commissioning of the IPP, signed by the Senior Special Assistant to the governor on Media, Mr. Hakeem Bello, stated that the Island Power Project is another milestone by the Fashola administration and an expression of the administration’s unalloyed commitment towards addressing the energy needs of the people of the state.

The statement further explained that the new IPP, built to highest global thermal operating plant standards, will deliver 24 hours uninterrupted supply of electricity to some public institutions located in central Lagos, such as the Island maternity, Lagos General Hospital, and the Lagos High Court, in a bid to increase their efficiency and bring down their operational cost.
