From Dream to Reality: Powering Igbo Progress with the Geometric Power Plant

Professor Barth Nnaji, the visionary behind the $800 million Geometric Power Plant, isn't your average businessman.
He's a man driven by a burning desire to see Igbo land, and by extension, Nigeria, rise to its full potential.
His latest project isn't just about generating electricity; it's about igniting an economic revolution.

"Aba wasn't the easiest choice," Nnaji admits. Lucrative locations like Lagos or Abuja beckoned with promises of quicker returns. But for Nnaji, it was never about profit alone. He saw in Aba a sleeping giant, stifled by the lack of a vital ingredient: reliable power.

This wasn't just an intellectual exercise; it was deeply personal. Nnaji, a professor of manufacturing engineering, had firsthand experience with the struggles of Igbo industrialists.
His own dream of building a world-class auto parts plant in Enugu was crushed by the very enemy he now sought to vanquish - epileptic power supply.

"The request from Dr. Okonjo-Iweala and Dr. Wolfohnson was the spark," Nnaji recalls. "But the fire already burned within me. Aba, with its vibrant manufacturing spirit, was the perfect tinderbox."

The journey wasn't smooth. Ten years of legal battles, financial hurdles, and community concerns tested Nnaji's resolve. But like the Nnewi people who built their town brick by brick, Nnaji persevered.

Today, the 188-megawatt Geometric Power Plant stands tall in Osisioma, a beacon of hope for Abia's nine local governments. It's not just generating electricity; it's generating jobs, opportunities, and a renewed sense of possibility.

This isn't just a story about power generation. It's a story about believing in a community, about taking charge of one's destiny, and about the transformative power of a single dream.
It's a story that inspires, challenges and reminds us that even in the face of darkness, there's always a light waiting to be ignited.

Invitation To The Commissioning Of The Aba Integrated Power Plant

It is with distinct pleasure that we invite you to the official commissioning of the long-awaited Aba Integrated Power Project (Aba IPP) which is scheduled to start at 10am on 26th February, 2024 at Osisioma – Aba, in Abia State.
Guests are expected to arrive and be seated before 10am.

The Aba IPP is a solely private sector-led initiative in which Aba metropolis and its adjoining suburbs are ring-fenced from the national grid and an embedded 141MW power plant built to provide reliable electricity to all classes of electricity customers within the metropolis.
Aba IPP is a model that can be replicated in selected commercial centers of Nigeria to quickly stimulate economic growth around the nation.

We will be most delighted and honored to see you at the commissioning of the Aba IPP.

With warm regards,
