ISLAMABAD:

“Every new generation capacity in Pakistan will be installed solely on domestic sources,” remarked Federal Minister for Power Khurram Dastgir Khan.

The minister made these remarks at the unveiling of the report on “Overview of Pakistan’s power sector and its future outlook” and the forum on Achievements of CPEC Power Projects.

Commending the efforts of the forum he appreciated the timely research initiative as valuable in trying to find a roadmap to steer the country out of this difficult energy situation.

“The government is focused on power generation based on domestic sources that are hydel, solar, Thar coal, wind and nuclear,” he added.
