KE seeks NEPRA guidance on FCA petition for 9MFY24

Author: pr

National Electric Power regulatory authority (NEPRA) has announced a public hearing on May 9, 2024 for the petition submitted by K-Electric on provisional monthly fuel charges adjustments (FCA) for the period July 2023 to March 2024. As KE’s multi-year tariff is currently under NEPRA’s deliberation, the utility has filed FCA based on three scenarios and has requested the approval of any one of the three scenarios for the authority’s consideration and guidance in determining the provisional FCA for above mentioned months to facilitate timely recovery of costs and avoid further accumulation of adjustments to be recovered from customers. Fuel Charge Adjustment (FCA) are incurred by utilities due to global variation in fuel prices used to generate electricity and change in the generation mix. These costs are passed through to customers following NEPRA’s scrutiny and approval. The request for FCA is due to utilization of fuel sources based on economic merit order and changes in fuel prices.
