Pakistan Braces for 7.13 Rs/unit Electricity Tariff Hike: Fuel Adjustment

Facing inflation, the country prepares for a power price surge, with a Rs7.13 unit increase due to January’s fuel costs. Nepra will review January’s fuel charge adjustments for Discos on February 23. CPPA-G reports show Discos’ fuel expenses, proposing a Rs.7.1308/kWh rise, making electricity Rs14.6 per unit from costly fuels like diesel.

Different generation sources had costs from Rs11.9213 to Rs45.6066 per kWh for diesel. Hydel’s share fell to 11.12%, with canal closures reducing dam water releases. Pakistan’s power capacity reached 46,035MW, including thermal, hydro, wind, solar, bagasse, and nuclear sources.

Hydel output dropped due to canal closures, forcing reliance on diesel at Rs45.6066 per unit. Despite its minor 1.22% generation share, diesel’s cost hit Rs4.6 billion. Furnace oil and imported coal also contributed to the generation, with significant costs. Stakeholders will discuss these price hikes at the Nepra hearing.
