Kaduna Electric has launched its mass metering scheme under the Distribution Sector Recovery Program (DISREP), a pivotal step to enhance customer service and promote energy accountability.
The program was launched on Tuesday, 4th November 2025, in Kaduna’s Millennium City. The Deputy Managing Director, Abubakar Sadiq Mohammed, oversaw the first installations. The Deputy Director of meter manufacturer Ningbo Sanxing, Mr. Fayiz, who was present at the launch, expressed being highly impressed with Kaduna Electric’s readiness and believes this will be a very successful project. The rollout complies with the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) metering code as all the meters have been certified by the Nigerian Electricity Management Services Agency (NEMSA).
Under DISREP, customers will receive modern prepaid SMART meters free of charge. Installation has started for customers on Band A feeders in Millennium City, with subsequent expansion to other regions.
During the launch, the Deputy Managing Director, Abubakar Sadiq Mohammed, reaffirmed the company’s dedication to empowering customers. “This initiative underscores our steadfast resolve to eliminate estimated billing. These smart meters will provide precise, real-time data and give you direct control over your energy consumption.”
He encouraged residents to cooperate with the installation teams for a seamless process. “Your partnership is essential for this endeavor’s success and will hasten the deployment for a more dependable service.”
We appeal to our customers to assist the field personnel. The company remains dedicated to building customer trust through improved service and reliable energy management.
