Turbine Power Plant
The German firm has agreed to carry out maintenance and regular servicing of all installations, training of local engineers and provision of spare parts for the project.
The plant was meant to supply 100 megawatts of electricity to the state, which is 25 megawatts above the power requirement of the state. This is in addition to the existing four megawatts being provided by the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
Bauchi, which was recently ranked the most investment friendly state by the World Bank, is the first northern state to embark on Independent Power Project.
Alston Company has begun site inspection.
