In line with its commitment to advancing sustainable industrialisation and accelerating Nigeria’s energy transition, Genesis Energy, a leading pan-African clean energy infrastructure development and asset management company, has announced a strategic collaboration with the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd.) to supply excess power generated from the Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) to the national grid.
The announcement, made during an official visit by the Honourable Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, to Genesis Energy’s operational site within the Port Harcourt Refinery in Eleme, Rivers State, provided an opportunity to showcase Genesis Energy’s contribution to Nigeria’s industrial growth through the operation of the nation’s largest licensed private off-grid clean power plant (84MW). The facility supplies dependable and sustainable energy to the PHRC — significantly improving refinery operations, strengthening local energy security, and reducing dependence on diesel and grid instability.
This groundbreaking partnership, undertaken in alignment with the Federal Government’s Power Sector Reform and Energy Transition Agenda, is designed to optimise Nigeria’s domestic generation capacity, enhance grid stability, and expand nationwide electricity access — representing a critical milestone in the nation’s journey toward a more reliable, efficient, and sustainable power ecosystem. It also underscores the vital role of clean, reliable, and locally generated energy in uplifting the Nigerian economy, driving industrial growth, and supporting national development goals.
Speaking during the visit, Honourable Minister of Power, Chief Adebayo Adelabu, commended Genesis Energy’s operational excellence and reiterated the Federal Government’s commitment to fostering a business environment that attracts and protects private-sector investment in the power industry. He stated that the government alone cannot fund the energy sector, and partnerships like the Genesis Energy–NNPC Ltd. collaboration are essential to closing infrastructure gaps and delivering reliable power to industries, businesses, and households nationwide.
“We are ready to do everything possible to attract investors to support us so that industries, businesses, and households can have uninterrupted, functional, and reliable electricity,” the Minister said. “We have put in place a comprehensive policy and consistent regulatory framework that ensures private sector investors can operate confidently, recover investments, and contribute meaningfully to national growth. This collaboration will serve as proof of concept for integrating excess capacity into the national grid and could lead to an additional 120MW expansion once the pilot phase is concluded. He affirmed the Federal Government’s readiness to fast-track transmission infrastructure and commercial arrangements to enable seamless offtake of power from the facility to the grid.
The 84MW Off-Grid Independent Power Plant (IPP) operated by Genesis Energy — located within the Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) — stands as the nation’s largest licensed private off-grid clean power plant and the company’s pioneering clean energy investments in the country. The facility, powered by three GE TM2500+ gas turbines, supplies uninterrupted, sustainable power directly to the refinery — improving operational efficiency, strengthening local energy security, and reducing dependence on diesel and grid instability. The PHRC IPP also exemplifies how Gas-to-Power acts as a strategic enabler for renewable energy deployment — with every 1MW of gas-to-power capacity creating potential for up to 2MWp of solar power investment, thereby supporting Nigeria’s Just Energy Transition and climate resilience agenda.
Mr. Akinwole II Omoboriowo, Chairman and CEO of Genesis Energy Group, reaffirmed the company’s dedication to leveraging innovative clean energy solutions to power Nigeria’s industrial and economic advancement.
“At Genesis Energy, we remain committed to powering progress through strategic partnerships that strengthen Nigeria’s energy infrastructure and expand access to reliable power. As Nigeria continues to advance toward achieving steady electricity supply, collaboration between the public and private sectors has become more critical than ever. One key example is our partnership with the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Limited). A milestone initiative enabling the supply of excess power from our Port Harcourt Refining Company (PHRC) facility to the national grid. This collaboration with NNPC Ltd. exemplifies pragmatic innovation — leveraging existing assets to expand energy access, enhance refinery productivity, and contribute to national development. This project goes beyond megawatts; it is powering jobs, industries, and communities.’’
Genesis Energy remains committed to partnering with the Nigerian government, financiers, and global stakeholders to accelerate sustainable industrial growth, support Just Energy transition goals, and build a cleaner, more prosperous future for all Nigerians. The visit and partnership announcement mark a significant step forward in Nigeria’s quest for a diversified, resilient, and inclusive energy sector — reinforcing Genesis Energy’s role as a trusted private-sector partner to government, financiers, and stakeholders in driving sustainable industrial growth and achieving the country’s long-term energy security goals.

Cancerous tissue form within the mesothelium, which is a shielding lining which covers the majority of the body’s areas. These cells usually form in the lining in the lungs, tummy, or the sac which actually encircles one’s heart. Thanks for expressing your ideas.

One important thing is that if you find yourself searching for a student loan you may find that you’ll need a cosigner. There are many cases where this is correct because you will find that you do not employ a past credit standing so the loan provider will require that you have someone cosign the borrowed funds for you. Thanks for your post.

In these days of austerity plus relative panic about running into debt, many individuals balk up against the idea of making use of a credit card in order to make acquisition of merchandise or maybe pay for a trip, preferring, instead to rely on the tried and trusted technique of making transaction – raw cash. However, in case you have the cash available to make the purchase in whole, then, paradoxically, that is the best time for you to use the card for several good reasons.
I do love the manner in which you have presented this particular problem plus it does supply me some fodder for thought. However, because of what precisely I have witnessed, I simply trust when other feedback stack on that men and women continue to be on issue and in no way get started on a soap box involving the news du jour. Yet, thank you for this excellent piece and although I do not agree with the idea in totality, I value the standpoint.
In the grand pattern of things you actually get an A with regard to effort. Exactly where you actually confused everybody was first on your specifics. As people say, the devil is in the details… And it could not be more true at this point. Having said that, allow me say to you just what did do the job. The writing is definitely very convincing and that is most likely the reason why I am taking an effort to opine. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, even though I can easily see a jumps in reason you make, I am definitely not certain of just how you seem to connect your details that help to make the actual conclusion.

Thanks for your posting. I also believe laptop computers have grown to be more and more popular nowadays, and now in many cases are the only type of computer included in a household. This is due to the fact that at the same time that they’re becoming more and more cost-effective, their working power keeps growing to the point where they’re as potent as pc’s out of just a few in years past.
I have discovered some points through your website post. One other stuff I would like to say is that there are numerous games that you can buy which are designed specially for preschool age youngsters. They consist of pattern acceptance, colors, pets, and patterns. These generally focus on familiarization rather than memorization. This will keep little ones occupied without having a sensation like they are studying. Thanks
