Electricity distribution companies are set to recommence the distribution of prepaid meters as part of the Meter Assets Provider program this week, as disclosed during a virtual stakeholders’ forum by Morenikeji Amosun, the Head of the Metering Team at Ikeja Electric.
Amosun reported the arrival of a new batch of meters under the program, with deployment beginning soon. He also mentioned that the company would prioritize clearing the backlog of older orders placed approximately two to three months ago before addressing new orders.
Furthermore, customers who had paid the previous prices set by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission would receive their meters without any additional charges, while new orders would be subject to the updated meter prices.
