Net metering accounted for 2.2 percent of total power generation in July 2026, a 39 basis point increase from the previous year, according to data analyzed by Arif Habib Limited. Despite this rise, overall power generation decreased by 0.9 percent year over year. Net metering units, excluding K Electric consumers, dropped 33 percent month over month due to reduced solar adoption and increased reliance on grid-supplied electricity.
NEPRA anticipates power demand to grow by 1.0 percent year over year in 2026. The government is working to clear a backlog of rooftop solar applications following a shift from net metering to net billing. As of Saturday, 11,695 of 16,654 pending net metering applications had been approved, with the remaining 4,959 cases still under review.
