PAKISTAN FORECASTS USD 72 BN INVESTMENT FOR 50% SURGE IN POWER DEMAND

According to Dawn, Pakistan's government expects a significant expansion in electricity generation capacity, projecting an investment of USD 72 billion over the next decade. The Indicative Generation Capacity Expansion Plan (IGCEP 2024-34), submitted to the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra), aims to strengthen the country's power infrastructure to meet increasing demand.

Under the proposed plan, renewable energy sources are slated to account for a significant portion, with an expected surge to 46 per cent of the total energy mix within the next decade. This surge in capacity, estimated to rise from 42,000MW to 57,000MW, underscores the government's commitment to embracing sustainable energy solutions.
