This indicates that the DisCos appear to have abandoned one of their duties, which is metering all eligible customers. Jos Electricity Distribution Plc recorded the highest total installations under the framework, with 52,174 meters deployed between 2019 and 2025. Enugu Electricity Distribution Company installed 597 meters, all between 2019 and 2023. Kaduna Electricity Distribution Company installed 149 meters in 2024, while Kano Electricity Distribution Company deployed 96 meters in the same year. In total, DisCos funded only 131 meters in the third quarter of 2025, representing just 0.06 per cent of the 228,614 meters installed across all metering frameworks during the period.
