Day 9 of 30 Days of Python – Building a Nigerian Electricity Bill Analyzer⚡

Source: Dev.to

🌍 The Nigerian Electricity Billing Problem

In Nigeria:

• Most households receive monthly bills from PHCN or Distribution Companies (DisCos)
• Bills often vary wildly from month to month
• Tariff systems are unclear
• Consumers struggle to know if they are being overbilled

This creates problems such as:

• Poor budgeting
• Lack of trust in billing systems
• Difficulty tracking electricity usage

🎯 Project Goal

Build a simple Python program that:

• Accepts monthly electricity consumption (kWh)
• Estimates the electricity bill
• Categorizes the bill as Low, Medium, or High
• Flags unusually high bills
• Gives basic energy‑saving advice

The project is beginner‑friendly and focuses on conditional logic.
