Protected Electricity Slab Unlikely to Be Extended to 300 Units, Says Minister

The government is unlikely to expand the “protected” electricity slab limit to 300 units, according to the Energy Minister. He stated that the current policy is designed to target only low-income households using limited electricity, and any extension could create fiscal challenges for the power sector.

The Energy Minister clarified that increasing the protected slab to 300 units is not under consideration, as it could strain the power sector’s finances and deviate from its goal of assisting low-income households. The current scheme will continue focusing on smaller consumers.
