FG Prepaid Meter Installers Training Details

To end estimated billing, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is accelerating efforts to close the metering gap. The current certified meter installer pool is insufficient to address the estimated 7 million metering gap across the country. To bridge this gap and support the closure of the metering deficit within the next two years, the administration is training an additional 5,000 installers.

Young Nigerians will be trained by National Power Training Institute of Nigeria and certified by Nigerian Electricity Management Services Agency to expand the national installer pool and unlock meaningful income opportunities for the trainees as they support large-scale meter deployment across the country.

Be part of Nigeria’s power sector transformation. Gain the technical skills required to install smart electricity meters nationwide and become a certified professional. Unlock the potential to earn income, build a sustainable income, and achieve greater financial independence while contributing to closing the country’s metering gap and end estimated billing.
