Key Factors Affecting GEPCO’s Unit Price in 2026
There are several reasons why GEPCO unit prices keep changing. Here are some of the most common factors:
Fuel Price Changes
Electricity generation in Pakistan heavily depends on fuel. Any increase in fuel prices directly affects the per unit electricity cost for all consumers.
IMF Package and Government Policies
The IMF package has pushed the government to increase taxes and reduce subsidies which has directly impacted electricity tariff rates across all consumer categories.
NEPRA Regulations
NEPRA regularly reviews and adjusts electricity tariff rates based on the overall energy situation in the country. Any change in NEPRA policies directly affects GEPCO unit prices.
Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA)
FPA is an additional charge added to your bill to cover fluctuations in fuel prices. It can increase or decrease every month depending on the current fuel market situation.
Increased Electricity Demand
As electricity demand continues to grow across domestic, commercial and industrial sectors, the overall load on the grid increases which can also contribute to rising tariff rates.
