Lasaki in the statement said, “In our bid to serve our customers better, we are looking to even add more feeders to the list of our Band A feeders so that more customers can enjoy a guaranteed 20 hours of power supply daily.

 

He said that it is also EKEDC’s commitment to ensure that customers under other service bands (Bands B to E) also enjoy their guaranteed minimum supply hours with further plans to improve power supply within the network.

 

“We are working tirelessly to eliminate supply downtime within our franchise area and achieve our goal of a stable and uninterruptible power supply,” Lasaki said.

 

The EKEDC’s spokesperson further explained that the Company has within its ranks a Rapid Response team available to take down any complaints and enquiries from customers regarding power supply which is available on the EKEDC website.

 Advisors Reports gathered that the new upgrade also aligned with the NERC’s updated rates for customers within the Band A service category, which provides that customers on Band A will be paying N225 kwpH.

 

NERC emphasised  the decision to increase the tariff was based on key market tariff review indices, including Nigerian inflation, US inflation, exchange rate, transmission loss factor, generation cost, transmission and administration cost, and wholesale gas to power prices.
