An analytical deep-dive into Nigeria's power distribution sector, highlighting critical revenue leakage and performance disparities across DisCos with a strategic focus on optimizing KEDCO's collection efficiency.
# Nigeria DisCos & KEDCO Loss & Revenue Recovery Analysis
**Author:** Muhammad Ahmad Yusuf
## Project Overview
This project is a comprehensive data analysis and business intelligence solution evaluating the operational and commercial performance of Nigerian Electricity Distribution Companies (DisCos), with a deep-dive focus on the **Kano Electricity Distribution Company (KEDCO)**. By leveraging 2025 performance data, this analysis investigates energy losses, billing efficiency, revenue collection performance, and Aggregate Technical, Commercial and Collection (ATC&C) losses.
The primary goal is to benchmark nationwide DisCo performance, identify the major drivers of revenue loss across the value chain, and highlight specific operational bottlenecks within the Kano region.
## Dashboards
### 1. National DisCos Overview
*Provides a macro-level view of all Nigerian DisCos, comparing Billing Efficiency, Collection Efficiency, and ATC&C Losses.*
### 2. KEDCO Specific Performance
*A localized deep-dive into KEDCO's specific revenue recovery challenges, highlighting the severe disparity between billing capabilities and actual revenue collection.*
## Data Sources & Methodology
* **Datasets:** Energy Billed & Received, Revenue Billed & Collected (Values in Billions of Naira - ₦).
* **Methodology:** * ETL processes performed in Power Query (Unpivoting, Data Cleansing, Time-Series Structuring).
* Relational Data Modeling in Power BI.
* Custom DAX measures engineered for calculating Efficiencies, Revenue Losses, and Variances.
## Key Findings: National DisCos Overview
* **The Nationwide Revenue Gap:** Across all DisCos, out of ₦3.64 Trillion in Energy Received and ₦3.0 Trillion Billed, only ₦2.32 Trillion was collected. This translates to an industry-wide **Billing Efficiency of 81.94%** and a **Collection Efficiency of 77.65%**.
* **Total National Revenue Loss:** The sector suffered a massive ₦1.33 Trillion in lost revenue. Notably, this loss is split almost evenly na …
