  • Benefits: Approved participants under a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) enjoy flexible pricing, negotiated energy tariffs, and more reliable electricity supply.
  • Industrial Impact: NDPHC aims to optimize over 2,000 MW of stranded power capacity, addressing liquidity challenges while boosting industrial growth.
  • Success Stories: Companies like Phoenix Steel Mills have benefited from stable power, resulting in higher productivity, cost savings, and stronger value chains.

The Managing Director/CEO, Jennifer Adighije, described the programme as a strategic pathway to deepen Nigeria’s industrial competitiveness and pledged to expand it to more industrial clusters nationwide.
