The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company has reduced electricity tariff for its customers in the Band A feeders throughout the South-East.

The reduction is sequel to the directive of the National Electricity Regulatory Commission that the 11 Discos should now charge N206.80/kWh and no longer N225/Kwh for customers in Band A feeders.

This is contained in a statement by EEDC’s spokesperson, Emeka Ezeh, in Enugu on Monday.

The statement indicated, “This is to inform our customers that end-user tariff for our Band A feeders have been reviewed downwards from N225/kWh to N206.80/kWh under MYTO 2024, effective from May 6, 2024. The daily minimum 20-hour supply still stands. Kindly note that end-user tariff for Bands B, C, D and E feeders remain unchanged.”
