Pakistan consumers may see reduced electricity prices soon

The Pakistani government will refund excess electricity payments made by consumers. This decision follows a request from the Central Power Purchasing Agency for a monthly fuel price adjustment for February. Electricity production in February was 6.49 billion units, with a cost of Rs 8.22 per unit. If approved, consumers may see a reduction of up to 30 paisas per unit in their bills. K-Electric has also requested a Rs 4.84 per unit tariff cut, seeking to refund Rs 4.84 billion to consumers. A public hearing for this request is set for March 20.
