Islamabad:
Consumers are likely to increase electricity rates up to RS0.91 per year. Unit due to fuel adjustment for August 2025.
NEPRA will hold a public consultation on September 29 on a petition filed by Central Power Calchasing Agency Warranty Limited (CPPA-G).
CPPA-G has sought an increase in fuel cost adjustment charges (FCA) for August 2025 up to RS0.1911 per year. Kilowatt-time (kWh) over the fuel price of the reference due to variations in generation costs.
The total fuel costs for generation on average RS7.5059/kWh compared to the notified reference price of RS7.3149/kWh.
After explaining transmission losses, sales to IPPs and prior adjustments, they were net costs delivered to discos, RS7.5059/kWh. Based on this calculation, CPPA-G has requested an upward adjustment of RS0.1911/kWh in the monthly FCA.
Coal -based power provided a significant portion of the supply where local coal produced 1,442 GWh at a price of RS12.0146/kWh and imported coal generating 1,138 GWh to RS14,0753/kWh. Atomic energy, which accounted for 2,145 GWh or 15.09 percent of the total generation, provided electricity at a relatively low price of RS2.1950/kWh. Imported electricity from Iran, although a smaller contributor of 78 GWh, wore a much higher price tag of RS41,0948/kWh.
Despite its limited share of 92 GWh (0.65%), residual fuel oil (RFO (RFO) had the most expensive unit costs among conventional fuels at RS33,0064/kWh. High -speed diesel recorded no generation during the month.
Adjustments of fuel tax are carried out in accordance with section 31 (1) of the Nepra Act.
