Aba Power is set to generate over 350 direct jobs as it begins a mass rollout of prepaid meters this April, targeting nine LGAs in Abia State.
Partnering with key meter manufacturers like Kayz Consortium, Chint, and Eve Electric, the initiative aims to accelerate metering coverage and eliminate estimated billing.
Kayz Consortium will assemble 90,000 meters by December 2025 and has brought in eight Chinese expatriates to train a 130-man Nigerian team for the task. In April alone, the company will install 20,000 meters at its base in Osisioma Industrial Layout.
