Breshna Company stated that over the past three years, it has collected nearly 259 million afghani in unpaid electricity bills.

According to the company's spokesperson, efforts are underway to recover all outstanding debts.

Hekmatullah Miwandi, spokesperson for the Breshna Company, said: “So far, we have collected 259 million afghani owed to Breshna by the people, and this process is ongoing. Our efforts aim to fully recover this money as soon as possible, and we hope to see the day when no one owes Breshna anything."

The former head of Breshna Company emphasizes that the company needs a systematic plan to collect all electricity debts consistently.

Amanullah Ghalib, the former head of Breshna Company, said: "Government departments that owe for electricity still have outstanding bills, which the Islamic Emirate should pay in installments. Efforts were made to have these bills paid through UNAMA, but unfortunately, this did not happen. Based on my information, government agencies and industrial parks still owe 7 to 8 billion afghani to Breshna."

While the process of debt collection is ongoing, the shortage of electricity remains one of the significant challenges for citizens.

"Power outages have increased, and people are facing difficulties. Most of the time, the electricity doesn’t come on time. There’s no power at night, and it only comes during the day or after midnight,” said Feda Mohammad, a resident of Kabul.

"Our request is that attention be given to this issue. The weather is cold, and we have young children. The electricity is not consistent enough for us to heat our homes properly,” said Ahmad Zia, another resident of Kabul.

Meanwhile, some economic experts have consistently stressed that the Breshna Company should invest the collected debts in domestic energy production.
