Executive summary- Power Sector reforms so far having no significant impact
•Constant power supply is the hall mark of any developed country, the absence of this prolongs development process.
•Various attempt at reforming - mere changes in name of the power authority and tariffs; ▫the sector is yet to be efficient▫The total installed capacity is 7940MW▫The “laudable” operating capacity is
4003.3MW from in 3804MW in 2012, for a country of about 170million population.

Executive summary- Power Sector reforms so far having no impact
▫Only about 40% have access to the erratic power that is supplied
▫The cost of generating individual electricity is almost N60/Kwh Jan 2012 subsidy removal and the looming
subsidy removal, probably the final one lurking around the corner- further increase in cost
▫The privatisation process behind schedule the will power of FGN is being doubted
▫How long will Nigerians continue to bear the brunt of poor power supply?

Executive summary-Manufacturing Sector; worst hit by Power Sector failure
•The cost of power as a proportion of total production ranges between 30%-35% in Nigeria, however it ranges between 5%-10% on the average in other countries (Adenikinju, 2005). ▫This reduces the competitive edge of
manufacturing firms
6
Nigeria’s Power Sector
•At 125 kWh per capita, electricity consumption in Nigeria is one of the lowest in the world▫it is just 7% of
Brazil’s and 3% of South Africa’s
▫Contribution to GDP barely above 3.5%
▫The spike in 2001 from 0.3% to 3.5%

Nigeria’s ManufacturingSector
Snap shot of the Manufacturing Sector
• Manufacturing sector has been a lagging sector in the economy with an average growth of 8.69% over the past decade▫The pick up in growth
from 5% in 2003 is as a result of the growth in cement industry from 3.8 to 10.1 in 2004
▫The manufacturing sector grew from 7.63% in 2011 to 7.70% growth in the sector was

•The rule of thumb for any economy to be said to be industrialized▫the manufacturing
sector should contribute at least 15% to GDP.
▫ Nigeria- contribution has hovered around 4% for the past decade

Problems facing Manufacturing Firms
Brief Literature Review
Literature Review
• Altinay & Karagol, (2005) and Ferguson, (2000) examined the existence of a long run relationship between energy use (electricity) and economic growth using a time series procedure with secondary data
• Performance of the manufacturing firm is very low (Bamjoko (2009); Famade (2010) and Ikpeze et al, (2001)).
• Larossi & Clarke (2011) and Malik, et al (2006) in their survey on Nigerian firms identified poor power supply as a major constraint to the performance of manufacturing firms
• Efficacy of the power sector reforms- Okoro & Chikuni (2007) and Maduekwe, (2010) were historical, Nnaji (2011) was a bit descriptive
15
• Romer (1986) states that production function of a firm is in the following form:▫ Y = A(R) F(Ri, Ki, Li)▫ Where: Y = Output; K = Capital ; L = Labour; A = technology;
R = Research
• Productivity and technology go hand in hand (Shaikh & Moudad)
• Gbadebo and Okonkwo (2009) explained that Technology which is an endogenous factor is related to energy (electricity). ▫ Technology is powered by electricity for it to be effective and
efficient. Electricity might not be the sole determinant of technology but is
a necessary factor to ensure that technology is being utilized.16
Theoretical Review
•The theoretical basis for estimating electricity outages. ▫Consumer welfare loss when there is electric
power failure (Adenikinku, 2005). •Five main approaches are used in literature
to infer welfare losses from power outages.▫Production function approach (Panel Analysis?)▫Self assessment analysis▫Economic welfare analysis▫Contingent valuation▫Revealed preference approach.

Findings, Recommendation and Conclusion
Findings
• Manufacturing firms need to be on top of their game to stay in business▫ Though at a higher cost; employ various production
techniques in order to minimise direct losses from the unexpected power supply
▫Manufacturers have changed their production technique such that there have been able to minimise their losses. varying production materials, reducing the quality of products planning work before production starts which saves
cost of fuelling generators and cuts other costs, publishing companies outsource printing of books to
other firms -production of intellectual work with their computer system..

• Impact of the Electricity Challenges on the Performance of Manufacturing Firms ▫The power supply has not changed since 2001▫The small-scale firms are worst hit by the electricity
crisis because their complaints are not attended to. This is unlike the large scale firms that get responses within 1 day to 6 months.
▫The small-scale firms also cannot afford to get “direct-lines” from the power distribution office.
▫a maximum duration of 45mins▫It was also discovered that the efficacy of power supply
differ according to location of firms. 26
Findings
• 69.3% of the respondents are in support of this Power Sector Reform at least to a good extent. However those in support of the system are skeptical about the effect it will have on the cost of production. ▫ The basis for this is that with privatisation, there would be
increases in electricity tariff. 53.77% of the respondents indicated that as far as the sector is efficient they do not mind the cost.
• None of the respondents indicated that they opposed the reform.▫ some reservations,
46.15% of the firms believe that the on-going reform will contribute very little in decreasing the cost of production,
30.77% were indifferent, only about 23% indicated that the reform might actually
contribute to a reduction in cost of production and these firms where the large firms
27
Findings
Recommendations
• Government will need to serve as a watch dog to the private investor
• Committee of technocrats independent from government to assess tariffs made by NERC before it is published or made law.
• An independent body should be established to receive customers’ complaint about the lackadaisical attitude of any distributing companies in attending to them, and report directly to NERC
• A large percentage of manufacturing firms would prefer having a full day on Monday, then on other days power can be supplied between 8am till 12 noon and 2pm to 4pm
• use of a prepaid billing syatem• Monthly meetings should be held with a representative of the
firm as it regards electricity supply until the power supply is relatively stable
28
• Significant changes in the performance of the manufacturing sector were not as a result of reforms in the power sector. ▫ the manufacturers have adopted various production
techniques to be able to still make profit.• The various Power Sector reforms over the years
have not been effective and the power sector is deteriorating as supply cannot meet demand.
• If the recommendations are adhered to, the nation might be some steps to becoming one of the industrialized nations, this may not be feasible in the year 2020 but it will still come to light.
