As part of the ongoing oversight visit to by the House of Representatives Committee on Power to power related institutions in Edo State, a visit was made by the Committee in the joint company of officials of Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), BEDC Electricity Plc. (BEDC) , the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) and the Niger Delta Power Holding Company (NDPHC), in order to update and assist in finding solution to the very recent power related issues in Benin. Visit was very useful.
BEDC continues to be a responsive and responsible distributor of electricity across the franchise states of Edo, Delta, Ondo and Ekiti committed to serving its customers better.

In addition, it is on record that out of the 9per cent allocation that BEDC gets from the national grid, Edo State gets above 40per cent, while the other three states share the balance.
We intend to continue to work towards ensuring that various bottlenecks across the power value chain are eliminated to the benefit of our customers in all our franchise states.
