According to officials, the price hike will be made in accordance with the monthly fuel costs adjustment (FCA) for June 2022.
The increase in power tariff will pass on an additional financial impact of Rs22.254 billion to consumers.
The national power regulator will take up the KE’s plea for a hearing on July 28, 2022.
