The federal government has initiated plans to reduce the current electricity tariffs through a series of proposals and measures, acknowledging the significant financial risks faced by the power sector.

According to sources, the government is working on multiple strategies to rationalise electricity rates, which include reducing allocations in development budgets at both federal and provincial levels.

Additionally, the government is considering shutting down domestic Independent Power Producers in both public and private sectors.
