…  upgrade limits Eko DisCo Band B feeders to 49

 

Oredola Adeola

 

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has approved the upgrade of an additional 60 feeders in the Eko Electricity Distribution Company’s (EKEDC) franchise area to Band A.

 

This decision brings the total number of Band A feeders under EKEDC’s network to 134, leaving 49 other feeders classified as Band B.

 

Babatunde Lasaki, General Manager, Corporate Communications of EKEDC in a statement obtained by Advisors Reports on Tuesday.

 

According to him, the upgrade by NERC followed a review of the feeders in line with their capabilities to give the customers classified under the feeder at least 20 hours of power supply daily.

 

Advisors Reports’ check showed the feeders to include; Agbara Local T5, Agbara Local T6, Beecham, Medallion Data Centre, Custom 2, New Idumagbo, Federal Secretariat 33, Berkley Express, Ilubirin, Old Niger, Ajele 1, Ajele 2, Commercial, NIMASA, Apapa Mains 1, Apapa Road Local T1, Apapa Road Local T2, Amuwo Local T3, Promenade, Kirikiri Express, Causeway 1 33, Abeokuta XI, Alcove Homes, Sabo 33, New Yaba (Akangba), and NRC (Akangba).

 

Others are UNILAG, Print Serve, Causeway 2, Psychiatric, UNILAG 1, Engineering Close, Alagbon Local T2, Alagbon Local T1, Anifowoshe 1, Anifowoshe 2, Anifowoshe 3, Fowler 1, Fowler 2, Federal Palace Express, IHS, Ademola 1, Utilita, Novatel Hotel, Lekki, New Yaba (Akoka), NAFDAC (New Yaba), Federal Medical Store, Ladipo, LUTH Complex, Randle, Ijesha (Itire 2), LUTH, Idi Araba 33, Isolo Local, Iba 33, Ojo Local T1, Ojo Local T3, Adelabu 1 and Adelabu 2.

 

Lasisi however expressed optimism in the Company’s capacity to accommodate more feeders in the Band A category subject to the commission’s approval.

 

He further affirmed the EKEDC’s commitment to improving its services by leveraging technology and improving turnaround time on fault resolution.

 

The EKEDC’s GM Corporate Communication said, “We will continue to meet our obligations to our customers by giving them power commensurate with their tariff classification. Being value-driven is one of our core values and we remain resolute in keeping to our service promise to our customers.

 

“We won’t stop until all our customers have a minimum of 20 hours daily”, he added.

 

Lasaki therefore informed Advisors Reports that the recent reduction in electricity tariffs for customers under Band A feeders, from N225 to N206.80 per kilowatt-hour, was influenced by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, inflationary indicators, and adjustments in generation and transmission costs.
