Unlocking Savings: How Band A and Band B Customers Can Benefit from NERC’s N30bn Free Meter Plan

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has launched a ₦30 billion plan to provide free electricity meters to consumers across the country. This initiative, according to Daily Post Nigeria, could offer significant savings to unmetered Band A and Band B electricity customers. Under the programme, customers will not have to pay for the meters or their installation, a move aimed at enhancing transparency and efficiency in power distribution. However, it is unclear when the facility began operating or how many meters will be distributed. The DisCos, or electricity distribution companies, are responsible for the implementation of this scheme, but they have not provided details on the rollout yet. As more information becomes available, we will keep our readers updated on the progress and potential benefits of this initiative for Band A and Band B electricity consumers.
