NEPRA to Consider CPPA’s Request for Power Tariff Reduction on October 29

Consumers across Pakistan, including Karachi, may soon see relief on their electricity bills.

On Wednesday, the Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA) submitted an application to the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) requesting a 37 paisa per unit reduction in electricity prices under the fuel adjustment for September.

NEPRA is scheduled to review and hear the application on October 29.

Presently, consumers are paying their electricity bills as per the fuel adjustment for August under which electricity prices had been increased by eight paisa per unit.
