First Independent Power Limited (FIPL), a key player in Nigeria’s power generation sector, is further solidifying its presence with the inauguration of the AFAM II 180 MW Power Plant by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. This newest plant represents a significant expansion of FIPL’s capabilities and underscores its commitment to contributing to Nigeria’s energy security. The virtual inauguration, presided over by the President, highlights the importance of private sector investment in addressing the nation’s power needs.
The AFAM II plant, FIPL’s largest to date, joins the company’s existing portfolio of gas turbine power plants strategically located across Nigeria. These plants, including those in Afam, Omoku, Trans Amadi, and Eleme, collectively contribute a substantial amount of power to the Nigerian power grid. FIPL’s operations are particularly focused in Rivers State, where the company plays a critical role in providing electricity to industries and communities.
