Abstract: The assessment of electricity load consumption in Akwa Ibom state of Nigeria and the prediction of future electricity requirement in the state cannot be over emphasised. The data of monthly load allocation and utilization of electricity of the state in the five previous years (2006-2010) were assessed. Various engineering analysis and applications including calculations, sketches, curves and graphs were applied to justify the study. According to the annual report (IPCL., 2012), the electricity load consumption in the state in December 2011 was 130MW. This study gives the opportunity to address the risk of planning errors that could arise in the electric power upgrade planning process. The assessment however, helped in providing efficient and reliable power system management. The assessment was carried out in the three major towns in Akwa Ibom State (Uyo, Ikot Ekpene and Eket). The result obtained using the least square method and regression exponential analysis method has shown that by 2020, the electricity load requirement in Akwa Ibom state shall increase to 247.84 MW.
