Power Sector: Effective Regulation not Regulatory Burden

Afia Malik

No 2022:35, PIDE Policy View Point from Pakistan Institute of Development Economics

Abstract: The power sector in Pakistan needs effective regulation and not a regulatory burden. A single power sector regulatory authority, i.e., NEPRA with adequate and effective regulatory powers, itself monitored by the government will_ send consistent signals to company operators, overcome the issue of insufficient professional capacity, and strengthen the authority�s vulnerability to political interference.
