Egbin Power Plant generation capacity has dropped to 880megawatts due to the ongoing routine maintenance on one of its units.
It was gathered that the plant originally designed to run on six units of 220 Mega Watts each has been challenged at a point over gas supply.
Egbin, which is the largest Power Station in Africa, in the last few months has generated and sustained 1100 MW of electricity boosting power supply in Lagos.
It also recently entered into a power purchase agreement with Eko Disco to enhance electricity supply to that network.
However the company has shut down one of the functioning units forcing power generation to drop to 880MW from 1100MW.
