IBEDC boosts electricity for over 10,000 customers in Ogun

The Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company Plc has completed a significant enhancement of its electricity infrastructure serving the Sango/Ota area in Ogun State, Nigeria.

From the news made available online by Busolami Tunwase, the IBEDC’s spokesperson, on Wednesday, the company said this upgrade is set to significantly improve power supply reliability for customers in the region.

Key improvements include the successful migration of the SANGO 33KV feeder to a more robust T3 100MVA, 132KV/33KV transformer at the Ota Transmission Station. Additionally, IBEDC has introduced a new dedicated ROTOCROWN 33KV feeder.

“These enhancements are designed to cater to the increasing electricity demands and ensure superior service quality for over 10,241 IBEDC customers,” the statement read.

The company said the upgraded transformers at the Ota Transmission Station now support three essential feeders: ROTOCROWN 33KV, TOWER ALLOY 33KV, and SANGO 33KV.

IBEDC said, “These upgrades will enable IBEDC to meet the rising energy needs in the region and provide stable electricity supply to numerous communities. Notably, the enhanced Sango 33KV feeder will benefit residents of Alishiba, Ilogbo, Bayo Block, Animashaun and Ewupe.”

The company revealed that these improvements are expected to enhance the quality of life for residents and businesses in these areas by ensuring a more consistent and reliable electricity supply.

According to the statement, the Acting Managing Director of IBEDC, Francis Agoha, emphasised the company’s commitment to service excellence and infrastructure investment.

“This upgrade underscores our dedication to enhancing the electricity infrastructure within our operational areas.

The increased transformer capacity at the Ota Transmission Station will enable us to meet growing electricity demands and provide a more stable and reliable power supply to our customers in Sango/Ota,” Agoha said.

“These recent upgrades are part of a broader strategy to modernize the power distribution network and enhance overall customer satisfaction. The ongoing commitment to infrastructure investment ensures IBEDC can continue providing high-quality electricity services to its customers,” the statement concluded.
