      <title>NEPRA reduce tariffs for electric vehicle charging stations</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330411936/nepra-reduce-tariffs-for-electric-vehicle-charging-stations</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NEPRA has approved a significant reduction in tariffs for electric vehicle charging stations following a request from the federal government.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The authority has announced that the basic tariff will decrease from Rs45.55 to Rs23.57 per unit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This decision results in a reduction of 21.98 per unit for electric vehicle charging stations.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Additionally, NEPRA has agreed to remove the capped margin of Rs24.44, allowing the market to determine the margin freely.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The federal government initiated this request to NEPRA, aiming to promote the use of electric vehicles and improve accessibility to charging infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Recently, the government has &lt;a href="https://english.aaj.tv/news/330411935/govt-announces-new-petroleum-prices-shocks-consumers"&gt;announced&lt;/a&gt; that the prices of petroleum products will remain unchanged, following a notification from the Finance Ministry.&lt;/p&gt;
