A new shipment of single-phase and three-phase split electricity meters arrived in Buchanan this morning and was offloaded at the Buchanan Warehouse under the supervision of MBH Power Nigeria Limited.
The delivery is a key step in the European Union-funded energy program designed to expand access to reliable electricity in Buchanan and surrounding communities. The meters will be used for customer connections and to support the expansion of distribution services across the city.
The consignment is part of the EU’s broader €42 million package to improve electricity access in three Liberian cities: Buchanan, Greenville, and Barclayville. The project is being implemented in partnership with the Government of Liberia to strengthen energy infrastructure in the southeast and central regions.
Officials say the safe arrival and storage of the meters mark continued progress toward the project’s electrification targets. The initiative aims to connect households, businesses, and public institutions to modern, sustainable energy services.
“The European Union remains committed to supporting the Government and people of Liberia in advancing the country’s energy sector,” an EU representative stated. “Increased access to electricity will foster economic growth, improve public services, and create opportunities for sustainable development.”
MBH Power Nigeria Limited is managing the warehouse and logistics for the Buchanan component of the program. With the meters now on site, preparations are underway for the next phase of customer hook-ups as Liberia moves closer to lighting up Buchanan City.
