  "summary": "The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) recently questioned CPPA-G and PPMC for presenting unreliable power-sector data and proposed recovery of Rs32.7 billion from electricity consumers through a positive Fuel Charges Adjustment (FCA). During a public hearing on CPPA-G's request for the September FCA, industry representatives expressed concerns over the increased reliance on diesel, HFO, and RLNG, and demanded an explanation for the underutilisation of coal-fired power plants. NEPRA Chairman Waseem Mukhtar presided over the hearing through an audio link, while other members attended physically.",
