NISO Steps In as Enugu Tariff Row Threatens Power Market Stability

The Nigerian Independent System Operator has intervened in the dispute between the Enugu State Electricity Regulatory Commission and the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company over a tariff cut, warning it could destabilise the national electricity market.

EEDC reportedly cut power supply to Enugu by 50% in protest against EERC’s order reducing Band A rates to N160/kWh. NISO urged dialogue to protect market stability, contract integrity, and industry sustainability.
