The TCN, Maryland 132/33kV Transmission Substation recently received a new 100MVA power transformer and its accessories. When installed, the transformer will increase the substation’s capacity by 56MW.
Before now, the Maryland Transmission Substation had a total capacity of 96MW, from two 30MVA 132/33kV and one 60MVA 132/33kV transformers.
The new 100MVA power transformer is a part of the FGN Power Project in TCN. Also, the substation is expecting the delivery of additional two new 100MVA power transformers under the TCN- World Bank projects. The 100MVA transformers will replace the existing transformers in the substation and increase the substation’s capacity to 300MVA (240MW).
The new transformers will improve bulk electricity supply to Ikeja DisCo, for offtake to its customers in Alausa, Maryland, and Mile 12 in Lagos.
The World Bank is currently installing four 33kV feeder bays in the substation’s switchyard.
