Following a recent grid collapse leading to the company’s outgoing feeders being knocked out of electricity supply, the Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) has announced restoration of power supply in all the states within the South-East Nigeria, its franchise coverage area.

ConsumerConnect reports Mr. Emeka Ezeh, Head of Corporate Communications at EEDC, said this in a statement issued Monday, June 13, 2022, in Enugu, Enugu State.

Ezeh stated power supply had since been restored in its outgoing feeders, following the restoration of the national grid which collapsed June 12 evening.

The EEDC Head of Corporate Communications said: “However, due to the low energy allocation to EEDC, occasioned by the poor generation, some of our feeders are currently put on system load-shedding by the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).

“We, therefore, thank our esteemed customers in Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo States for their support and understanding during the period we lost supply.

“EEDC is assuring them of our continued commitment towards providing improved services.”

At about 6:49p.m., Sunday, June 12, report had indicated there was a grid collapse, leading to EEDC outgoing feeders being knocked out of electricity supply.
