Peshawar Electric Supply Company has introduced a new digital facility allowing consumers to pay electricity bills through QR codes, marking a step toward easier and faster payments.

Under the new system, QR codes are now printed on electricity bills, enabling users to scan the code via mobile banking apps or digital wallets and complete payments from home without visiting banks or payment centers.

Officials say the initiative is aimed at improving customer convenience and promoting digital transactions, particularly in areas where traditional payment methods can be time-consuming.

The move is part of broader efforts to modernize billing and payment systems, reducing queues and simplifying the process for millions of consumers across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Consumers can now settle their bills instantly by scanning the QR code, making the process quicker, more secure, and accessible through smartphones.

The development reflects a growing push by power distribution companies in Pakistan to adopt digital solutions and improve service delivery through technology.
