This is informed by population growth  in Kano, Katsina, and Jigawa that now requires incremental supply to meet the growing energy needs of the citizens in the franchise area.

To accelerate outcomes for its customers, KEDCO is partnering with a number of leading energy supply companies to develop Embedded Power Generation and Interconnected and Isolated mini-grids with a primary focus on Renewable Energy.

KEDCO is actively partnering with the state governments of Kano, Katsina and Jigawa to ease the development of incremental supply projects in the network.

In February 2024, KEDCO launched an RFQ process to qualify competent and experienced Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) to partner in developing up to 40MW in supply projects within the franchise area.
