The Federal Government of Nigeria has announced plans to implement electricity tariffs for its completed renewable energy installations across 25 tertiary institutions and teaching hospitals. This initiative was disclosed during the official launch of the state-owned Renewable Asset Management Company (RAMCO) in Abuja.

According to government officials, the introduction of tariffs is designed to address historical challenges regarding the maintenance and long-term sustainability of public infrastructure. While these facilities previously received electricity pro bono under programs such as the Rural Electrification Agency's (REA) Energising Education Programme—which has deployed 82 megawatts of solar hybrid generation since 2017—officials emphasized that operational costs require ongoing financial contributions from beneficiary institutions.

The revenue generated from the tariffs will be dedicated to servicing, maintaining, and preserving the renewable energy assets to prevent premature degradation. The unveiling event was attended by key government figures, including the Minister of Power, the Minister of Education, the Minister of State for Health, and the Managing Director of the REA. Beneficiary institutions affected by this policy include major establishments such as Ahmadu Bello University, the University of Nigeria, and the Federal University, Wukari.
