As of April 2025, the Federal Government of Nigeria has been actively working to address the nation's electricity metering gap. In April 2024, the Minister of Power, Adebayo Adelabu, announced plans to procure 3.5 million electricity meters by the end of 2024 to improve revenue collection and reduce estimated billing. This initiative aimed to install 2 million meters through government efforts and an additional 1.5 million meters supported by the World Bank.​

To support this endeavor, the government planned to release 20 billion naira to electricity distribution companies for procuring meters for large users, ensuring they would be metered by September 2024. Additionally, the Federal Government expressed commitment to partnering with local meter manufacturers to bridge the metering gap, aiming to install at least two million meters annually over the next five years.

While specific figures regarding the delivery of 75,000 electricity meters in April 2024 and 200,000 units in May 2024 were not detailed in the available sources, these efforts are part of a broader strategy to enhance metering infrastructure and improve transparency in billing within Nigeria's power sector.
