New Electricity Tariff: Full List of Eko Electric’s 21 Band A Areas

On Wednesday, the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) sanctioned a significant rise in electricity tariffs for customers categorized under Band A. This adjustment will impact certain customers of the Eko Electricity Distribution Company (EKEDC).

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 on April 3, 2024.

This was revealed by Musliu Oseni, the Vice Chairman of NERC.

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.
