NERC Clashes with GenCos Over National Grid Code Compliance
GenCos and NERC are in disagreement over the enforcement of the national grid code in Nigeria. The code aims to regulate electricity frequency to ensure grid stability during peak and low demand hours.
NERC issued an order penalizing GenCos that fail to comply with the code, emphasizing the need for strict adherence to operational frequency limits and implementing monitoring mechanisms. The system requires generating units to be equipped with technology capable of regulating turbine speed and adjusting power output based on frequency deviations.
This move is crucial for enhancing power generation reliability and stability in Nigeria's power grid.
