Overview
- CPPA-G filed to refund Re0.6508 per unit for the October fuel cost adjustment for ex-Wapda Discos and K-Electric, with a NEPRA hearing set for November 27.
- CPPA data shows October generation at 9,886 GWh, down 3.66% year-on-year and 21.49% month-on-month.
- The delivered fuel cost averaged Rs8.7177 per kWh versus a reference charge of Rs9.3685, creating the basis for the requested refund.
- In a separate session, CPPA estimated the FY2026 national power purchase price at Rs25.69–26.69 per unit based on demand, exchange-rate and fuel price projections.
- NEPRA member Rafiq Ahmed Sheikh termed the submission incomplete, and industry groups warned the proposed range would keep power costly and hurt competitiveness.
