ENUGU STATE ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION
Public Notice
It has come to the attention of the Commission that Mainpower Electricity
Distribution Company Limited has reverted to charging its Band A customers
N209.50/kWh as against the Commission’s Order of 160.40/kWh. This violation
persists despite prior directives from the Commission mandating strict compliance
with the tariff Order. Such actions constitute a breach of the Tariff Order by
Mainpower Electricity Distribution Limited 2025.
Band A customers who have been billed above the approved rate are urged to
report the discrepancy to the Commission via info@eerc.en.gov.ng or
ccrd@eerc.en.gov.ng with evidence of the breach for necessary regulatory action;
which may involve imposing appropriate sanctions on Mainpower.
The Commission is also aware of the curtailing of electricity supply by EEDC and
MainPower to Bands B, C, D and E customers which has affected about 50% of
electricity customers in Enugu State. The Commission is not unmindful of the
negative impact and frowns at this action by EEDC and Mainpower.
Mainpower retains the right to challenge the Tariff Order consistent with the
processes as prescribed in the Commission’s Business Rules, but such petitions will
only be considered after full implementation of the current directive in line with
Section 20 (7) of the Commission’s Business Rules.
The Commission reaffirms its commitment to enforcing its regulatory authority as
outlined in the Enugu State Electricity Law (2023).
