NEPRA urged to revise grid charges, detection bills
Filings urge changes to NEPRA tariff rules so grid-sharing fees match actual network costs, not a fixed Rs8.948 million per MW rate.
Objections filed with NEPRA seek changes to proposed Consumer Service Manual amendments on grid-sharing fees, industrial connections and detection bills.
Objectors say a proposed grid-sharing charge of Rs8.948 million per MW should instead reflect actual infrastructure needs.
They propose dedicated transformers up to 1,000 kVA without automatic extra fees, and lower-voltage industrial options where workable.
They want itemised evidence for detection bills and a pause on collecting formally disputed amounts above set thresholds while cases are decided within 30 days.
The submission questions K-Electric load surveys when customers seek lower sanctioned loads and seeks clearer security-deposit rules.
