The federal government has taken a significant step towards addressing Nigeria’s longstanding electricity meter shortage. In a partnership with Chinese firms, the government aims to install over 1.4 million smart meters across the country.
The agreement, signed between the Bureau of Public Enterprises (BPE), electricity distribution companies (DisCos), and the Chinese firms; Ningbo Sanxing Medical and Electric Company Limited, Ningbo Sanxing Smart Electric Company Limited, and Messrs XJ Group Corporation, was announced on Friday by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).
The signing ceremony took place at the BPE headquarters in Abuja.
