Electricity prices vary depending on use-BPC

These prices are for domestic customers only.This, he says, is what customers do not understand, and therefore tend to believe that there is some cheating by some retailers that have partnered with BPC in selling electricity.

“What we have discovered is that in a month most people buy electricity first from BPC then from the nearest shop or filling station the second time around. Now that is when electricity will be sold at 75-thebe per unit because they have already purchased their first 200 kilowatts of that month. They therefore tend to think that the shops are a lot more expensive where as they would have paid the same even at BPC,” he says.
