▪︎Government to build off grid power source for army barracks in remote areas

The Federal Government of Nigeria has launched a mass metering program for Nigerian Army formations across the country, pledging to put an end to estimated billings in the power sector.

The Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, inaugurated the program at the headquarters of the 9th Brigade of the Nigerian Army in Ikeja.

The first phase of the exercise will last for six weeks, with N12.7 billion released out of a total budget of N40 billion. The aim is to accurately measure electricity consumption at army barracks and ensure appropriate billing.

Adelabu emphasized that the government’s ultimate goal is to eliminate estimated billings entirely. The smart meters being installed are tamper-proof and also provide users with an app to monitor their monthly consumption.

Additionally, the Minister revealed plans to build off-grid power sources, particularly solar energy, for army barracks located in remote areas without access to the national grid.

The metering project will eventually be extended to all military formations in the country, with the objective of providing 24-hour power supply to the barracks.

The second phase of the program will commence in Abuja and Enugu simultaneously, benefiting army formations across 11 distribution companies.
