*TCN Launches Line Reconductoring in Kano, Contractors Set 12-Month Delivery Target*

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) has launched a line reconductoring project in Kano to improve power transmission reliability across Northern Nigeria. The project involves upgrading the ageing Kumbotso-Dakata 132kV Double-Circuit Transmission Line, which has been a major bottleneck affecting supply to key industrial hubs like the Dakata Industrial Zone and the upcoming Walalambe Transmission Substation.

The project, expected to be completed within 12 months, includes critical upgrades such as replacing obsolete ACSR dog conductors with high-capacity ACCC-Silvassa conductors, installing Optical Ground Wire (OPGW) for enhanced communication and monitoring, and deploying durable composite polymer insulators suited for harsh environmental conditions.

TCN's General Manager, Transmission Services, Engr. A.I. Sharifai emphasized the project's importance, stating that it's not just infrastructure renewal but about restoring confidence in the transmission network and empowering industries and communities through reliable electricity.

This project is part of TCN's efforts to enhance power infrastructure and economic development in the region. Similar projects include the reconductoring of the Kankia-Katsina 132kV transmission line, expected to last between five and six weeks, and the upgrade of transmission lines in Port Harcourt, aimed at increasing line capacity and reducing power interruptions.

The TCN has also completed 22 power transmission projects and upgrades since 2020, including delivering four units of 132 kilovolts transmission substations and upgrading 15 existing substations with higher capacity transformers and equipment .

TCN is committed to contributing its quota to the country's economic and social development through impactful transmission infrastructural development.

US President Donald Trump has once again taken aim at Elon Musk, suggesting the billionaire would "head back to South Africa" if federal subsidies for electric vehicles (EVs) are cut. Trump’s jab follows Musk’s sharp criticism of the sweeping tax and spending bill known as the "Big Beautiful Bill," which includes proposed cuts to clean energy support. Musk has referred to it as "political suicide for the Republican Party." Trump has also threatened to investigate the subsidies received by Musk’s companies using the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—an agency Musk once led before stepping down in May. As senators push ahead with the bill, Musk has hinted he may launch his new political party, the so-called "America Party," the day after it passes. #DWAfrica
