The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission has urged prepaid meter users to update their meters before November 2024.
The news was posted by NERC on its X handle (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday..
The update, which is free, would not have an impact on current users of prepaid units, the electrical regulatory commission said.
Users were also asked to get in touch with their distribution companies for more details about the update.
The statement read, “If you have a prepaid meter, it may be time for an update. From November 2024, you may not be able to recharge your meter. However, updating is easy and free. DisCos shall commence issuance of two free Key Change Tokens (KCTs) which will update your meter.
“The update will not affect the units in your meter nor will it make your meter run faster than usual. Contact your DisCo for more information.”
