The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has issued its decision regarding the Fuel Charges Adjustment (FCA) requested by K-Electric (K-E) for April 2024, indicating a benefit of Rs1.67 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) to be passed on to customers in their July 2024 bills.

Earlier, NEPRA had notified a decision that specified the FCA rate of Rs1.7111 per KWh and Rs1.3946 per KWh, pertaining to July 2023 and September 2023 respectively, to be applied to customers’ July 2024 bills.

The FCA is incurred by a power utility due to global variation in fuel prices used to generate electricity and change in generation mix.
