Electricity distribution company, Enugu Electricity has disclosed that metering its customers is in the company’s best interest.

“Our Metering department is working assiduously to meter as many customers as possible. We have committed both human and financial resources to ensure the success of this project”
“It is an aspect of our operation which we believe so much in and these meters as well as its installation are delivered to our customers at no cost”.
