The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, on Wednesday, approved a sharp increase in electricity tariffs for customers classified under Band A. Some customers of Eko Electricity Distribution Company, EKDC, will be affected by the new electricity tariff.
Customers in this category will now be charged N225 per
kilowatt-hour (KW/h). It is a significant rise from the previous rate of N66
electricity tariff.
The new rate takes effect from 3rd April 2024.
This was revealed by Musliu Oseni, the Vice Chairman of NERC.

country HERE.
Wrongly bill?
Meanwhile, the regulator has directed all Electricity
Distribution Companies, DisCos, to provide as much clarity as possible to all
affected customers.
For instance, on the new electricity tariff, NERC said: “All
customers wrongly billed at the new rate should be refunded through energy
tokens no later than Thursday the 11th of April 2024.
“And (they should) file evidence of compliance with the
Commission by the 12th of April 2024.
