KE slammed for delaying net-metering

The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) has ordered K-Electric to refrain from penalising paying customers by interrupting their electricity supply due to non-payment of others or illegal connections. Additionally, it has instructed K-Electric not to delay or discourage net-metering applicants based on claims of system weaknesses that need to be addressed. In two separate orders, Nepra expressed deep concern that KE was discouraging or delaying solar net-metering applications and instead asked the regulator to reconsider its explicit orders for timely connections.
