KAPCO resumes power generation as NEPRA clears tariff hurdles
Kot Addu Power Company Limited (KAPCO) has resumed supplying electricity to the national grid after more than two months, following a decision by the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) to provisionally extend its tariff period, according to a press release. The plant had been offline since October 1 due to tariff limitations arising from the Indicative Generation Capacity Expansion Plan (IGCEP) and Power Acquisition Programme (PAP). NEPRA’s determination, issued on December 9, removes these constraints and allows immediate restoration of KAPCO’s 495MW gas/RLNG and 478MW LSFO-based generation capacity. The regulator acted after detailed submissions from the Independent System and Market Operator (ISMO), National Grid Company of Pakistan Limited (NGC), Multan Electric Power Company (MEPCO), Central Power Purchasing Agency-Guarantee (CPPA-G) and the Ministry of Energy.
