Annunaki: We want improved power supply, but why can't we be given the prepaid meter, we are told to pay 30-50k for the prepaid, you will have the money and still you will not see it, they will be given it secretly to the highest bidder... Ekdp refuse to share the prepaid so that they will be using all these estimated bills to meet there personal target on top no light for weeks sometimes month(s), but high bills will be coming |

Bevista: ... You are 100% correct. It is indeed, a welcome development. ...Fash should also make sure that prepaid meters are available, if not, the useless NEPA or PHCN or whatever they call themselves, would be distributing exorbitant bills to consumers.. ...... .….. 1 Like |

TheFreeOne: Bros d idea is well commendable. Using BEDC with fixed charge of #750 & #14.82perkwh. My last bill payment was #2000 and analysis were as follows: Out of #2000; fixed charge=#750, vat=#95.24. Cost=#1154.75 for 78.0kwh@14.82perkwh. Now, with same #2000 & increment by #9.26, the analysis will be thus: 14.82+9.26=#24.08perkwh, The same 78.0kwh will cost 24.08*78.0=#1878.24, and vat=#95.24. Therefore total payment will be 1878.24+95.24=#1973.48. The difference now will be 2000-1973.48=#26.52 for the same unit of 78.0kwh. That should be a good news QED. 3 Likes |

This government is very and highly confused. NASS just pronounced that NERC should not increase tariff but in deviant the organisation did. Just like the leadership of the country disdobeys court order, any organ can disdobeys government instructions What a party is APC Nigerians are in trouble |

This is bad news to post paid user but good news to pre paid user's. Am a post paid user so am not happy with this. Am been charge #14.82 per unit before but now it automatically drives up to #24.82 per unit. Nah die o. 1 Like |

princeonx: Gbam,scrapping the fixed charge is OK and making prepaid meters available and compulsory is OK too. Doing away with estimated stupid crazy bills will follow suit... More honest friendly reforms are still needed in that sector...... 1 Like |

These corrupt id*iots are increasing electricity bill for lack of electricity not for actually delivering any service. |
Re: NERC Increases Electricity Tarrifs, Scraps Fixed Charges by Bevista: 6:10pm On Dec 21, 2015 |
christopher123:Strictly speaking, you are right. But there is also an economic model for regulating monopolies to ensure efficiency and fair pricing. Some sectors like Power, Rail, etc usually require huge initial investment and a reasonable time horizon to recover investment before throwing it open, else most investors will not commit such huge funds and then worry about cut-throat price competition. 1 Like |

Good step in the right direction, I only hope the tariiff is now cost reflective and the Discos can now get down to real work without haggling on poor tarriff again. I also think there should be more enlightenment on the part of the public and that Nerc ensures that Discos roll out prepaid meters asap and also carry out effective power distribution and not just revenue collection |

Macarony01: [size=14pt]Thank God you are one of those who's got brain to think To add to your point, I once bought 250kwh in 2013. It was supposed to last for 3 months. Due to epileptic power, it lasted 6 months. I got to PHCN IKDC, at alausa only to pay 750x6=4500 naira for phcn inefficiency. With Fashola's formula, I can choose to economize my power usage. Because there is no more pressure of fixed charges. [/size] 1 Like |
