All About Technology That You Need

Electricity produced in Pakistan is from three main sources.

1). Hydal 2). Thermal (Gas/Steam/Furnace Oil) 3). Nuclear There are four major power producers in country which include Water & Power Development Authority (WAPDA), Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC), Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission (PAEC). Below is the break-up of the installed capacity of each of these power producers (as of June-2008). 1). WAPDA a).

Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission KANUPP                                                                    137 MW CHASNUPP-1                                                            325  MW Total (Nuclear)                                                 ===>   462  MW Hydal Electricity generated by WAPDA varies between two extremities i.e. between minimum of 2414 MW and maximum of 6761 MW depending upon the river flows through the whole year. Total Power Generation Capacity of Pakistan (including all sources) is 19855 MW and the electricity demand is 14500 MW and PEPCO is merely generating 10000 MW. So it is obvious that these hours of power shutdowns in most parts of the country are not because of the lack of generation capacity but only because of the corruption &  incompetence and a well designed idea to collapse the economy of the country that's why the business has been ordered to close down by 8 in the evening. in hot summers when people can only shop at nights, shops have been closed down.may Allah safe us from traitors rulers who have been placed to destroy us but i have firm belief that Saver is more powerful then spoiler.
