ELECTRICITY: THE ARK TO BE POWERED BY 32 TRANSFORMERS

Bishop Oyedepo has announced that 32 transformers will be used to power the Ark when it comes on stream after it's November dedication. According to him, during the second service yesterday, 4th May 2025 at the Faith Tabernacle, this will be required because of the large power requirement at the new building. The Ark will have 129 elevators, travelators and escalators which will move worshippers including elderly people and in other cases, challenged folks who require  healing up and down the 4 floor, 109,000 capacity bowl as well as the 5,000 capacity youth church and 20,000 seat children's church. Additionally, the staff will operate between the 12 twin tower mission headquarters and use of the staircase may not always be practicable. 

Canaanland already had a 15MW Power plant installed in 2016 but this will be inadequate for power needs of the Ark. The Dome will also draw 1MW of solar energy to the facility while the roof is designed to gather rain 🌧 water to aid in flushing the 1,200 restrooms by gravity. 

The transformers located at the new power plant required to power plant is much bigger than the present plant. 

It is believed to be already under construction and would be finished in time for the dedication of the Ark.

The new Megawatt power plant reported to be 80MW will help to supply electricity to the whole of Canaanland including The Ark, Covenant University, Canaan City and possibly some parts of Ota. 

According to Bishop Oyedepo, Canaanland has never experienced a complete electricity blackout since 1999 contrary to the norm in Nigeria.
