The power authorities on Friday predicted that Nigeria would generate 6,873 megawatts of electricity by the end of 2013.

The Chief Executive Officer of Egbin Power Plc, Mr. Mike Uzoigwe, gave this hint at the signing of a performance agreement between the Minister of State for Power, Mrs. Zainab Kuchi and the Permanent Secretary, Dr. Dere Awosika.

The chief executive officers of the organisations in the ministry also signed the performance agreements with the minister.

Uzoigwe said the successor companies of the Power Holding Company of Nigeria would generate 3,879mw, while the National Independent Power Producers and Independent Power Producers would generate 2,500mw.

The Egbin Power Plc boss said the target was agreed upon during a meeting attended by the minister, the presidential task force and the chief executive officers of all successor companies in which the capability and performance of all generation company stations were reviewed.
