Express October 26, 2010

Pakistan Electric Power Company (Pepco) on Tuesday announced the end of loadshedding, across the country.

According to Director General Pepco Muhammad Khalid, the difference between the demand and supply has reduced, largely due to the change in weather.

Khalid said that the current power production is 12,500MW while the shortfall has reduced to 500MW.

He further added that power outages have ended for domestic consumers as well as for many industries such as those of cement, textiles and oil.

Concluding, he promised the restarting of power production units in the next few days. Some of the units named include Pak Jain, Jagran and Chashma Hydel Profit.
