The National Electricity Regulatory Commission says the Federal Government has given licences to more than 50 independent power producers to ensure stable power supply under the new dispensation.
The NERC Commissioner for Marketing, Competition and Rates, Mr. Eyo Ekpo, told the News Agency of Nigeria in Lagos on Wednesday that the new tariff regime would attract more investors.
He said the new tariff had been categorised in favour of low- income households and small and medium enterprises.
Ekposaid some consumers’ bills would increase by as little as 11 per cent under the new tariff regime.
He said the bills of certain category of consumers, classified as ‘special customers’, including hospitals and street lights, would increase by less than 11 per cent.
Ekposaid that those in the R1 category, consisting of rural dwellers and the urban poor, would pay lower tariffs as they would still continue to enjoy subsidy from the Federal Government.
He said that those in the C1 group, consisting artisans and small businesses, would also pay low tariffs in line with the government’s policy of providing power to small and medium enterprises.
“In working out the tariff, we place the burden differently. We are to cross-subsidise those who cannot pay.
“As such, the cost of power to those in the R1 and C1 categories will still be low since they will enjoy part of the cross-subsidy,” he said.
The commissioner said NERC was charged with the statutory function of effecting major reviews of electricity tariff every five years.

I will be including files in this post and u can see the detailed break down in the first file and the excel sheet used in the calculation.


I have not read everything but the load distribution is different for different zones and pricing will not be uniform after one year.

Sorry the files are too big to be uploaded so i will post the link to the files and their names. . . i would say it is very detailed and of standard quality.

This is the link to the files and i will give information about each files.

The first file deals with expectation and the tariff model but the separate tariff model can be seen in the fourth file.

The second file is a very detailed excel sheet used for the whole project and i should say it is a must download. (ekt_bear will really like this one ).

The third file deals with load distributions for each zone or discos and why there is variance between each zones. The eastern part and Lagos are the greatest beneficiary from my little glance.

The fourth file is the tariff model, so everyone should download that and see what they will be paying as from next month.

The second link below deals with other tariff information and then the main document database link.
