ONDO MOVES TO BOOST POWER GENERATION & DISTRIBUTION, GRANTS LICENSES FOR 100MW PLANT

Ore Power Limited & Valiant Energy Company Ltd Receive Landmark Licenses from Ondo State Electricity Regulatory Bureau to Operate and Expand the Ore IPP.
The Ondo State Government has taken a decisive step toward energy self-sufficiency with the formal grant of an operating license to Ore Power Limited — a jointly-owned power generation company, and another operating license to Valiant Electricity Limited – a power distribution company by the Ondo State Electricity Regulatory Bureau (OSERB). The licenses authorize the operation of the Ore 30MW Independent Power Plant (IPP), with a clear pathway for expansion to a total installed capacity of 100MW: 60MW dedicated to powering the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Plant and 40MW injected directly into the Ondo State Electricity Grid. The LNG Production Plant is projected to operate at a capacity of 2,000 Tons Per Day (100 MMSCFD) at full development.

This landmark achievement is anchored in the Ondo State Electric Power Sector Law 2020, which empowers Ondo State to independently generate, distribute, and regulate electricity — a function previously controlled exclusively by the Federal Government through the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC).

Speaking at the event, the Chief Executive Officer of the Ondo State Development and Investment Promotion Agency (ONDIPA), Emmanuel Omomowo Esq, who was ably represented by the Director of Business Development, Engr. Femi Akarakiri, emphasized the State’s proactive approach to attracting credible investors into critical sectors. He noted that Ondo State remains committed to creating an enabling environment for private sector participation, particularly in the energy space, which is pivotal to economic growth and industrialization.

Also speaking, the State Coordinator of the Ondo State Electricity Regulatory Bureau (OSERB), Engr. Stephen Olugbenga Bolawole, stated that the initiative aligns squarely with the policy direction of the State Government. He explained that the development is driven by the legal framework provided under the Ondo State Electric Power Sector Law, 2020, which governs electricity market operations within the State.

Speaking on behalf of the investor, the President of Valiant Group (the parent company of the various Valiant companies, including ASB Valiant Company Limited), Ayodele Ikumapayi, expressed confidence in Ondo State’s leadership in Nigeria’s power sector. He noted that the State possesses the human and natural resources required to achieve energy self-sufficiency.
He commended the State Government for creating a conducive investment climate and revealed that the company is partnering with Ondo State through Ore Power Limited to revitalize and expand power infrastructure.
