Currently, about 61 percent of Nigeria's existing power generation capacity comes from thermal power and 31 percent from hydropower, and most of the power generation equipment is old and lacks proper maintenance and care. Due to the shortage of electricity supply, most government agencies, institutions and more than 97 percent of enterprises in Nigeria have to provide their own generators to generate electricity, the contradiction between power supply and demand has become one of the main problems hindering the economic development of Nigeria.
