Before viewing this thread, I knew it would be somewhere on the island.

Most parts of Lagos island can't boast of 5hrs of light in a day


I think the name should be changed to Darkland



Ebute Metta is on the Mainland

Oga medical director pls reduce the lying.
Are you saying that you pay more for electricity compared to commercial banks?

20million monthly? I want to believe you mistakenly wrote that figure. Moreover it's not even difficult to or validate. Just show us your payment receipts for the last 3-6 months.

It makes no sense at all, almost amounting to the legendary sleaze and corruption the civil service is reputed for (disrepute actually).
Let's break it down. A monthly expenditure of 20 million naira on electricity amounts to about 650k daily. If they're supplied with only 3 hours of power every day, then that's 220k per hour. Haba! angry
Furthermore, 80k litres of diesel in a month is about a hundred million naira every month for 24 hours power? It just doesn't add up to me.



Man is busy siphoning funds and acting like he is working.

How did you narrow it down to 3 hours. Most Hospitals in US and UK use green energy.
Or are you talking about house houses. The calculations is still wrong.

20m for 3 hrs light. So u need 160m for 24hrs light. U currently buy 80000 litres that's about 90m . My advice .disconnect from NEPA and add the 20m to buy deisel or go for solar

Hmmm, there some heavy equipment I no sure say solar for power ooo
Horus(m): 9:17pm On May 17
It is better to have Solar s for the hospital. Solar s can also provide a reliable, independent energy source, reducing reliance on
the grid and minimizing the risk of power outages.

Oga it is possible, the medical center will be an MD customer, ie those that have private transformers, we struggle with average monthly bills of 5m for a small boutique hotel and an event center. Note that it is not daily you have events in which you turn on ACs. The hotel closeby I hear average 20m, the Chinese making nylon next door have bills of averagely 30m.
All this is aside diesel cost which is the real killer. Infact most business these days see diesel as the major expense. Most cannot afford to restart production process when nepa takes light and bring it at will so they just keep the gen running.
Now if the federal medical center is a big place such as Lasuth, or LUTH, I assume they will have heavy equipments such as CT scanners, MRI and other power hungry equipments you cannot just shut down, they are not like computers or TV you off and on, it takes a long process. Based on that assuming they run a 1000kva generator which ast 80% load consumes eg 180 liters of diesel per hour for 15 hours daily ie 2700 liters per day or 81k liters monthly.
Yes corruption as you rightly said will be there. I give you an example, few days ago we bought 500 liters, the next day by 5am estate security stopped a vehicle leaving with 7 kegs of diesel, last last it was traced to my premises. By 5am my security man had drained 220 liters into 7 kegs and a buyer came that early morning with a vehicle to carry, paying him 24k per keg. And this has gone on for a long time, luckily we caught them.
