The International Monetary Fund (IMF) expressed serious concerns on the solar policy of Pakistan, it was reported on Wednesday.
According to details, in the new solar policy, old and new consumers were separated. The net metering system was maintained for the old consumers of solar panels, while a cross-subsidy will be provided to the old consumers.
The old solar panel consumers were not shifted on net billing. Officials said that the net billing model is as per the international standard.
The officials will brief the IMF about the privatisation of DISCOs. Officials further revealed that the privatisation processes of three DISCOs are underway.
