More states are now planning to reduce electricity tariffs within their territories following a new directive from the Enugu Electricity Regulatory Commission (EERC), which slashed the Band-A electricity rate from N209 per kilowatt-hour to N160/kWh for Main-Power Electricity Distribution Limited, starting August 1, 2025. This move, however, sparked strong opposition from power generation and distribution companies. The Generation Companies (GenCos) warned that such actions could destabilize the power sector, pointing out that the industry already owes them over N5 trillion.
