Electricity distribution companies (DisCos) in the country have notified their customers of the upward review of electricity tariffs for Band A customers.
According to the distribution companies, customers in Band A will now pay N209.5/kWh, from the previous rate of N206.80/kWh.
The DisCos, in separate messages, said the new price takes effect from July 1.
The companies attributed the tariff increase to the revision of the 2024 MYTO for Band A customers.
They also noted that the tariffs for Bands B, C, D, and E will, however, remain unchanged.
Taking to its X account, the Port Harcourt Electricity Distribution Plc (PHED) said:
“Dear esteemed customers, Please be informed that there is an upward tariff review for our Band A feeders from N206.80/kWh to N209.5/kwh effective 1st July 2024. The guaranteed availability of a minimum of 20 hrs per day still stands.
“The tariff for Bands B, C, D, and E remains unchanged.”
Kaduna Electricity Distribution Company (Kaduna Electric); Ikeja Electricity (IE); Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC); and Ibadan Electricity Distribution Company (IBEDC) also sent similar messages to their customers.
