Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC) is partnering with the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI) and Haier Technologies – its development partner to deliver 20 megawatts of power to Challawa Industrial Area in Kano State.

The managing director/CEO of the NDPHC, Engr. Jennifer Adighije, disclosed this when she led a management team on a site survey and assessment of the Challawa Industrial District in Kano.

In her company were the executive director of Generation, Engr. Kassim Abdulahi, and the executive director of Corporate Services, Engr. Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama.

Head, Corporate Communications and External Relations, NDPHC, Emmanuel Ojor, stated on Friday that  the team’s first stop was at the Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO), where they were received by the Managing Director/CEO, Dr. Abu Jimeta.

During strategic discussions, both CEOs reaffirmed their commitment to collaboration in developing viable models to enhance electricity access in Kano and its environs.

The joint visit also included representatives from the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI) and Haier Technologies—NDPHC’s development partners—who are collaborating on a 20MW embedded solar generation facility aimed at supporting vulnerable businesses in the Challawa area.

Speaking during a meeting with business owners in Challawa, Engr. Adighije described the visit as both significant and emotional, noting the critical role the industrial area plays in national revenue generation and socio-economic development.

“It is a pleasure to be at the Challawa Industrial Area. This is a very important and emotional visit,” she said.

“I recall that on December 7th last year, the chairman of our Board and Vice President of Nigeria, Kashim Shettima, visited Challawa.

Before he even returned to Abuja, he called and gave us a directive to show our presence here by providing an alternative source of electricity to the area.”

 

Addressing the delay between the Vice President’s directive and the current visit, she explained: “You may wonder why it took us from December until now. It took us a few months to come because I engaged development partners to come up with a cost effective solution that will offer affordable tariffs for the Challawa community.”

 

 

Engr. Adighije noted that NDPHC engaged NASENI and Haier Technologies to develop a project framework that leverages Kano’s abundant solar potential to deliver reliable, renewable, and affordable electricity to businesses in Challawa.

 

 

She continued, “I was emotional seeing businesses with the capacity to generate revenue and drive economic growth suffer losses simply due to a lack of affordable electricity. We must turn our solar potential into actionable solutions that unlock opportunities, boost productivity, and serve the greater good of all Nigerians.”

 

 

Highlighting the broader national context, she added: “The output of the manufacturing sector should directly translate into job creation, wealth generation, and poverty reduction. Kano is symbolic and strategic to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.”

 

 

She assured business owners that NDPHC and its partners are fully committed to deploying embedded solutions that will significantly benefit manufacturers in the area.

 

 

“As a generation company, NDPHC primarily supplies power from its gas-fired plants to the national grid. However, with the power market now transitioning to a bilateral trading structure, Engr. Adighije explained that the company is able to sell directly to off-takers, distribution companies, or registered buyer groups”.

 

 

“As an association, you can come together to register a trading company and purchase electricity directly from NDPHC,” she advised.

 

 

“You can be assured that our electricity pricing will be highly competitive—better than what is currently available from distribution companies.”
