As we all know that world is going through a crisis. Every Country is facing severe problems or going down because of a financial crisis. After the pandemic, the financial situation of the world is tightening Prices of not only electricity but every other thing also increased during the pandemic All sorts of energy prices increase. Mostly during summer, the electricity bill increases because of the high usage of electricity.
Increase in Electricity Prices In Pakistan
In Pakistan every year during summer there is an increase in electricity bills because of the high demand and usage of electricity. Pakistan is blessed with every season. But the season of summer is a long-lasting and challenging season every year. Because of Pakistan’s condition right now there is an increase in every price. Pakistan’s Heat during summer is not bearable at all. Every year Pakistan hit a heatwave because of an increase in temperature.
According to a recent survey, The government approved an increase in electricity prices in the range of Rs 3.3 to Rs15.52 per unit for residential consumers, farmers, and exporters.
The answer to this Why is there an increase in electricity bills is because of the falling situation of the country and because of unemployment in Pakistan and because of its increased population. The main downfall of Pakistan is because corruption in this country never ends since its creation Pakistan imports most of the important things like fuel etc. Fuel is an important reliance for most of the powers. The biggest drawback of Pakistan is that Pakistan imports more than export. Another reason we can say that the lack of investment put in the country’s treasure this year. Pakistan’s rupee downfall is another drawback and is the cause of the price rising in the country. This thing does not only affect electricity prices but also drops the geopolitical image of Pakistan all over the world. We can put the blame on the political situation of Pakistan going on now. Even after the rising bill still many areas of Pakistan are not getting the proper amount of electricity still there are some areas in Pakistan in which there is load shedding for hours. Pakistan’s per unit electricity rate is Rs 3.25.
Ways to avoid the increase in Bill prices Every Month
To avoid the massive increase in bills every month the best way is to shift to solar panels
Not only solar panels will help to get rid of those prices every month but also helps to reduce carbon footprints and other gases which is affecting the atmosphere of the earth and causing problems like an increase in temperature every year etc. We can also avoid using electricity at a higher amount while it is at its peak hour. The government should arrange programs related to solar panels and guide the people about the benefits the people themselves and the government will have.
