Prepaid Metering Solutions

Single-phase prepaid meter supplied by FGRNL

SERVICE OVERVIEW

Pay-As-You-Use Power, Designed for Nigerian Realities

Metering refers to the act of measuring how much electricity a household, business or estate consumes. Prepaid metering takes it one step further — consumers purchase electricity credit before they use it, eliminating bill disputes, late payments and unrecovered consumption.

For property owners, facility managers and estate developers, prepaid metering is the most reliable way to convert electricity from a recurring revenue leak into a fully accountable, fully recovered cost line.
