PESCO (Peshawar Electric Supply Company) serves most districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, including Peshawar, Mardan, Charsadda, Nowshera, Swabi, Kohat, Bannu, Dera Ismail Khan and Swat. The Hazara division is now served by HAZECO, and the former tribal districts by TESCO.
What makes PESCO bills different
- Wide climate range: cold northern valleys use electricity for heating in winter, while D.I. Khan and the southern districts have very hot summers.
- Feeder-based load-shedding: some feeders with high losses have longer outage schedules, which is a common source of complaints.
- Detection bills: consumers in some areas receive detection or average bills, so keeping meter photos is important.
