Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has taken immediate notice of the new solar regulations issued by the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) and instructed the Power Division to file a review petition.
The Prime Minister directed that the petition should focus on protecting the contracts of existing solar users to ensure their rights are fully safeguarded.
He emphasized that the burden of 466,000 solar users should not fall on the more than 37.6 million consumers who rely solely on the national grid.
In this regard, the Power Division has been tasked with formulating a comprehensive action plan.
The instructions came during a high-level special meeting held today in Islamabad, chaired by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to review NEPRA’s new regulations.
The meeting was attended by Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, Federal Ministers Ahsan Iqbal, Attaullah Tarar, Ali Pervaiz Malik, Sardar Owais Khan Laghari, Minister of State Bilal Azhar Kiani, Privatization Advisor Muhammad Ali, and other senior officials.
