My current location is Nigeria. The electric power supply is fair enough here. At least I have the opportunity to experience light every day but most times it doesn't last throughout the day. The light might come by morning and last till evening but by night it will be taken away but that doesn't stop the kids from jubilating when they see power supply.

Most times the light won't be constant anymore for a week the light might be seized causing lots of stress especially when it comes to water.
Currently we don't use prepaid meters which is why the outrageous bill comes every month from PHCN ( Power holding company in Nigeria) but hopefully they plan to install prepaid meters so we can know the amount of energy we consume each day. Using prepaid meters stops the outrageous bills that come at the end of the month, we can now calculate the energy we consume and pay accordingly making it less expensive. I would prefer to use prepaid meters.
I prefer solar panels, the heat is too much so the solar would be very useful this time giving constant light each day but the disadvantage of solar panels is that it might not work efficiently during rainy days. I prefer to use both light and solar panels in case there is no light. I switch to solar panels but if there is light I would charge my batteries to be used during rainy days but solar panels are quite expensive at the moment making it impossible for everyone to have one.
The electric power supply is quite regular over here. At least I get to experience light every day for a few hours before it is taken away. If the prepaid meter could be installed that will make it easier for us to calculate the bills we pay for electricity. Though light comes over here I would like it to be constant at least let me experience how it feels to have light 24/7. I guess the feeling will be glorious.
