Our History

In 2009, a group of engineering personnel of the defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) formed the Nigerian Electric Power Engineering Professionals to cater to their members’ welfare and professional development.

As the association gained prominence, the founders deemed it expedient to engender a broader and more robust engagement platform aimed at ensuring that only qualified Engineers drive the management of all government Power establishments in Nigeria; hence, in 2016, they sought affiliation with the Nigerian Society of Engineers( NSE) and later morphed into the Nigerian Institution of Power Engineers of Nigeria (a Division of Nigerian Society of Engineers). It later changed to the Nigerian Institute of Power Engineers upon its registration with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) in 2019.

Later in 2019, the Institute approached the National Assembly with a bill seeking legislative approval and recognition as a Chartered Professional

body to be charged with the responsibility to regulate, control and determine the standard of knowledge and skills for persons seeking to ply their trade in Nigerian Power sector and also for members of the Institute who would be seeking to be Chartered Power Engineers, the Institution capstone professional qualification.

The bill establishing the Chartered Institute of Power Engineers of Nigeria (CIPEN) became an Act of the National Assembly when President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, signed it into law on May 11, 2023, as the Chartered Institute of Power Engineers of Nigeria Act, 2023 (Act No 50, 2023 LFN )

The Institute had its first executive council election on October 14, 2023, and the technical societies’ chairpersons election were elected online between November 7-9, 2023.

The Institute and the first governing Council members were inaugurated on November 16, 2023, by a Judge of the Federal High Court.
