NERC Says Update Is Free
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has urged prepaid metre users to update their metres before November 2024, reports Digital TimesNG.
NERC shared the update on its X handle (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.
The electricity regulatory body added that the update, which is free of charge, would not affect the current prepaid units of users.
It further advised users to contact their Distribution Companies for more information as regards the update.
“If you have a prepaid metre, it may be time for an update. From November 2024, you may not be able to recharge your metre. However, updating is easy and free.
“DisCos shall commence issuance of two free Key Change Tokens (KCTs) which will update your metre.
“The update will not affect the units in your metre, nor will it make your metre run faster than usual. Contact your DisCo for more information,” the X (Twitter) post read.
