Following the total blackout being experienced as a result of the collapse of the national grid, many Nigerians have been asking: What is national grid collapse?WHAT IS A POWER GRID AND HOW DOES IT WORK?
An electrical grid is an interconnected network for electricity delivery from producers to consumers. Electrical grids vary in size and can cover whole countries or continents
Nigeria’s national grid is known for experiencing disruptions. It collapsed in February, May, July, and August 2021.
The power grid starts in the places where electricity is made. Once upon a time, electricity was generated only at central power stations, which usually ran off fossil fuels — coal or natural gas — or nuclear energy. Today there are more and cleaner options for energy generation.
That’s a good thing, because fossil fuels release harmful greenhouse gases when they burn, which hasten global warming. And nuclear power plants use the metal uranium which, like fossil fuel, is nonrenewable and can be a dangerous environmental pollutant.
