The Central North Regional Electricity Distributor (Cenored) has commenced the rollout of the TID (Tokens Identifier) project under the theme “Get Your Prepaid Metres Updated—Don't Be Left In The Dark”. 

The rollout exercise will result in 55,000 prepaid meters in the operational areas being upgraded by July 2024.

If the metres are not updated, they will cease to function on November 24, 2024.

The commencement of the TID was confirmed by the company's Corporate Communications and Marketing Officer, Chali Matengu.

Erongo Red's Chief Executive Officer has urged customers to update their pre-paid metres to the new token identifier so that they are not left behind before it is implemented in November. Immanuel !Hanabeb announced this at a media briefing in Walvis Bay.

This announcement comes after all electrical suppliers received directives from the Standard Transfer Specification (STS) Association regarding the changes that will come into effect on November 24, 2024. The changes will affect not only the metres with Erongo RED but all STS-compliant metres all over the world.
