If you landed here, there’s a good chance your electricity bill hasn’t arrived yet, or maybe you just want a quick duplicate copy before the due date. That happens a lot in Pakistan, especially during summer when electricity usage increases and bills become more important to track.
The good news is that you can now do a complete MEPCO bill online check from your mobile or laptop within a minute. No need to visit an office or wait for the paper bill.
I’ve noticed many users get confused between the reference number, consumer ID, and the official MEPCO system. So in this guide, I’ll explain everything in simple language — from checking your duplicate bill to understanding tariffs, taxes, complaints, peak hours, and even solar net metering.
What Is MEPCO?
Multan Electric Power Company, commonly called MEPCO, is one of the largest electricity distribution companies in Pakistan. It supplies electricity to South Punjab regions including Multan, Bahawalpur, Dera Ghazi Khan, and nearby districts.

Enter the 14-digit reference number printed on your previous MEPCO electricity bill.
Enter your consumed units to get a rough MEPCO electricity bill estimate. This calculator uses general tariff assumptions, so the official bill may differ because tariffs, taxes, adjustments, fixed charges, sanctioned load and consumer category can change.

Where to Find Your Reference Number?
Your 14-digit reference number is usually printed at the top section of your electricity bill, as highlighted in the image below.
Look for the area labeled “Reference Number” and enter the digits exactly as shown on your bill to check your latest electricity bill online.
You can use this number to:
- View your latest bill
- Download duplicate bill copy
- Check due date and payable amount
- Access your bill details online
Important: Enter the reference number carefully without spaces or missing digits.
MEPCO Bill Check by Consumer ID
In newer bills, MEPCO also provides a Consumer ID.
Consumer ID vs Reference Number
| Feature | Reference Number | Consumer ID |
|---|---|---|
| Length | 14 Digits | Usually 10 Digits |
| Available on Old Bills | Yes | Sometimes No |
| Used for Duplicate Bill | Yes | Yes |
| Easier for Mobile Use | Moderate | Easier |
If your bill checking system supports it, you can use either method.

Check Bill Via CNIC – Is It Possible?

If you lost your bill completely, contacting the helpline is the better option.

MEPCO Solar Net Metering Bill

Always verify solar billing calculations carefully because adjustment methods can differ.
