NERC: Why Power Sector Metering Programmes Fail


By Emmanuel Addeh
The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has listed project management failure and non-adherence to the terms of contracts as some of the reasons why past metering programmes in the country failed.
Speaking during a virtual discussion organised by, “The Power Hub,” General Manager, Finance and Management Services of the regulatory commission, Mr. Abdul Shettima, also reiterated the pledge by NERC to ensure a refund to customers who paid for meters under the Credited Advanced Payment for Metering Implementation (CAPMI) scheme, which it admitted was a failed initiative.
He recalled that when the power sector was privatised, metering was one of the key components that the core investors were required to address, plus loss of reduction and network upgrade, but noted that unfortunately because of cost-reflectivity , technical partnership and a lot other issues, none of those targets were met.
