Net billing
Trade power with your DISCO — the 2026 way.
Net metering's 1:1 swap is being replaced by net billing: you're paid a fixed buyback for exports, separate from what you pay for imports. Design around it and you still win.
Net Metering (1:1)
Every exported unit cancelled an imported unit at the same retail rate. Simple, generous — and being phased out for new connections.
Net Billing
Imports are billed at ~PKR 55/unit; exports are bought back at the NEPRA NAEPP rate of ~PKR 11/unit. A self-used unit is now worth ~5x an exported one.
What it means for you
Self-consume first, export the rest.
The design goal flips from "export everything" to "use everything you can, when you generate it" — which is exactly what a battery enables.
-
Import ≈ PKR 55/unit
What you pay the grid, inclusive of surcharges and slab taxes.
-
Export ≈ PKR 11/unit
The 2026 NAEPP buyback for surplus you push back to the grid.
-
Battery closes the gap
Storing daytime surplus for evening use captures the full 55 instead of selling low at 11.
