Published Updated

According to the brief on daily power generation and load-management position, the hydel generation stood at 5,553 MW, WAPDA thermal 1,597 MW, IPPs 6,752 MW and rental 185 MW.

Some 600 MW power was supplied to Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC), the report further said.

The hydel and IPPs generation has significantly increased owing to improved water outflow in rivers and smooth oil supply to the power generating units.
