The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has approved a downward review of electricity tariff for Band ˜A customers from N225/kWh to N206.80/kwh.
Under the approved review, Band ˜A customers who were previously charged N225/Kwh are now to pay N206.80/kwh.
The bands customers are those who enjoy a daily supply of a minimum of 20 hours.
The review of the tariff was announced in Abuja on Monday by a notice issued by the management of Abuja Electricity Distribution Company (AEDC).
The notice read, We are pleased to share with you the revised tariff for our Band ˜A feeders, which will decrease from N225/kwhto N206.80 effective May 6.
We assure customers on our Band ˜A feeders of continued availability of electricity supply for 20-24 hours daily.
Please note that the tariffs for Band B, C D and E remain unaffected. (NAN)
