Nepra

The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority is responsible for regulating the electricity supply in Pakistan. It is also responsible for issuing licenses for electricity generation, transmission, and distribution; establishing and enforcing standards to ensure operational quality and safety; approving utility companies’ investment and power acquisition programs; and determining tariffs for electric power. NEPRA was created when the Parliament of Pakistan passed the Regulation of Generation, Transmission and Distribution of Electric Power Act, 1997.
