The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) has announced a grant of $1.16 million from the United States Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) for the construction of a 1,350MW power plant in Abuja.

The deal in which both parties agreed to close out  on December 1, 2019 is a  fallout of a business meeting between the management of NNPC and the U.S. Trade and Development Agency at the NNPC Towers, Abuja Thursday.

The grant is a  part funding for the NNPC-Abuja Independent Power Project (IPP) modelled to generate 1,350 megawatts of electricity, boost power supply and  alleviate the power challenge in the country.

Group Managing Director of the NNPC, Mallam Mele Kyari, said that the plan by the Corporation to build the 1,350mw power plant in Abuja was part of the national strategy to monetise the abundant natural gas resources in the country.

Kyari said the USDTA grant was to complement the ongoing feed project in order to make the Abuja IPP initiative bankable for strategic investor’ participation.

“As a state-owned oil company and enabler organisation, we know that our investment in the Abuja 1,350mw IPP will increase energy supply level with great impact on the nation’s economy. Therefore, the USTDA grant is timely to make it a bankable project that would attract foreign direct investment into the country”, he said.

“This company is focused on making our systems and processes transparent and accountable and that is why we are engaging world class institutions with good track record in execution of our projects”, the GMD explained.

He called on the USTDA to look beyond feasibility studies to actual delivery of the project, stressing that the power plant project has a lot of viable investment opportunities for all investors.

In her remarks, the Country Manager, Power Africa and the leader of the USTDA delegation, Jullian Foerster, stated that her organisation was determined to work with the corporation to sign off on the grant not later than December 1, 2019.

She said that USTDA was open to other business opportunities in the coming year, 2020, noting that NNPC’s strategic role as a key player in the oil and gas industry made the U.S. Agency to “jump at the opportunity to work on this deal” of providing support in the form of a grant.
