The Nigeria Electricity Regulatory Commission (the Afam VI Power Plant) has renewed the power generation licence for NERC, a 650 MW facility that has delivered over 24.16 million MWh of electricity into the Nigerian grid since 2008. In 2016, the combined cycle gas power plant supplied about 12% of Nigeria's grid-electricity. Afam VI utilises waste heat energy from the gas turbine exhaust to generate an additional 200 MW from a steam turbine.
