Subsequently, President Buhari established the Federal Government of Nigeria Power Company (FGN Power Company) as a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to deliver the Presidential Power Initiative (PPI) in partnership with Siemens. The Presidential Power Initiative (PPI) aims to enable the Nigeria Electricity Supply Industry (NESI) to achieve commercial autonomy by facilitating investments in critical infrastructure to support power delivery and service to Nigerians.
The Presidential Power Initiative (PPI) seeks to modernize, rehabilitate and expand the national grid by investing in the Nigerian power sector's electricity value chain (distribution, transmission, and generation systems) of the Nigerian power sector.
The PPI will deliver the much-needed electricity supply and spur economic growth across the country with FGN Power Company managing and supervising the project to ensure accountability, coordination and best practice implementation of the initiative.
The Presidential Power Initiative (PPI) has four guiding principles by which it operates, which are Transparency, Integrity, Sustainability, and Efficiency.
The Board of Directors and Management of FGN Power Company play a critical role within the PPI to ensure that the project achieves its objectives.
FGN Power Company has five layers of oversight and execution: the Steering Committee, the Board of Directors, the Executive Management, and the Staff.
