ISLAMABAD:
The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) allowed the power distribution companies, except for K-Electric, to charge consumers an extra Rs0.8954 per unit on account of monthly fuel charges adjustment (FCA) for January 2021.
The power distribution companies would collect the amount from consumers in March 2021 bills. The hike was allowed as the consumers were charged less in January against the cost of power generation. After the increase, the distribution companies will receive an additional Rs6.9 billion from the consumers.
The tariff increase will not be applicable to K-Electric due to it being a privatised company.
