The Management of Ikeja Electricity Distribution Plc (Ikeja Electric) and its technical partner, Korean Electricity Company (KEPCO) will soon commence enumeration of customers to drive efficiency and effective metering within its network.

Speaking at the event, a Director of the company, Mr Kola Adesina, explained that the project will involve mapping of each of the electrical network entities from 132kv/33kv System, 11kv system,  Distribution Transformers and poles.

The project, according to Adesina will also involve indexing of Ikeja Electric’s distribution assets such as Power Transformers, Feeder Pillars, High Tension Poles and Distribution Transformers.

“This is going to be a thorough project that would ensure a solid foundation for efficient, equitable and transparent power supply to our esteemed customers.

The customer and consumer indexing will be carried out through door-to-door survey.

We are appealing to all our customers and the good people of Lagos to support the project by cooperating with the enumerators and provide accurate information that would empower Ikeja Electric to give the best service possible to all customers,” he said.

He added that the project would ensure effective customer segmentation of high and low density areas and will support seamless update of the company’s customer data base.

“We are transiting into an era where new technology will drive the campaign against energy theft and distortion of electrical equipment.

Adesina explained that the signing of the contract with KEPCO would also fast track effective metering process.

“With this contract, l can boldly say that the kick-starting of our robust metering project has commenced” he said.

Also speaking, the Chief Executive Officer of Ikeja Electric, Engr. Abiodun Ajifowobaje said that the signing of the contract is in compliance with the directive of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) to Discos for effective customer  enumeration to update their data base.
