Boosting power generation in Nigeria – the Azura-Edo independent power project
29 February 2016
The Azura-Edo independent power project (IPP) lays claim to a number of firsts. It is Nigeria’s first fully privately financed IPP – the first of a new wave of project-financed greenfield IPPs currently being developed in the country. It is also the first power generation project in Nigeria to receive World Bank Partial Risk Guarantee and Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA) support.
