The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that TCN attributed the drop to low water levels at the hydro power stations and dearth of gas to the power generating companies.
The TCN said the total output of 2,662.20 megawatts from all the generation companies yesterday had been transferred to the 11 distribution companies across the country.
