THE Chairman, Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), Dr Sam Amadi, has said that the Bureau of Public Enterprise (BPE) has approved a cost schedule for meters.
Amadi announced the approval to newsmen at the stakeholders’ Workshop on Metering Code 2 in Abuja, adding that consumers would pay N25,000 for the single-phase meter and N50,000 for the three-phase meter.
He explained that the full schedule would be formally announced by NERC, adding that there were different types of meters available.
Amadi explained that the cost of the meters would be slightly higher depending on whether the consumer was using a smart or a systemised meter.
He said that the Distribution Companies of Nigeria (DISCOs) were under obligation to issue meters to consumers within 45 days for customers, who had paid for meters from January 2011.
