As of the second quarter of 2024, around 5.9 million customers of eleven electricity distribution companies (DisCos) in Nigeria were metered. In the same period, the total registered electricity customers reached close to 13 million. This meant that the vast majority of the registered clients had no meters to measure the usage of electrical energy, and thus remained on estimated billing. Ibadan and Ikeja reported the highest number of metered electricity customers in Nigeria, while metering was lowest in Kaduna and Yola.
