The Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) of the Cabinet approved a plan on Tuesday by the Power Division to apply Fuel Charges Adjustment (FCA) uniformly nationwide.
The ECC meeting was chaired by Finance Minister Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb and discussed several key economic and development issues, including the issue of power sector reforms.
To ensure a single tariff nationwide, the ECC determined that NEPRA shall apply the FCA applicable to public DISCOs to K-Electric consumers via tariff rationalisation.
This means K-Electric consumers will pay the same FCA charges and the same FCA billing period as Disco consumers, consistent with the federal government’s tariff uniformity policy and the need to ensure the financial sustainability of the power sector.
In accordance with the decision, all differences between the FCA worked out for K-Electric and the FCA notified will be dealt with by a subsidy or cross-subsidy.
The uniform FCA implementation will begin with the June 2025 adjustment, to be billed in this month.
