The project will utilise low BTU and high sulphur permeating gas, which is currently being flared from the Qadirpur gas field, thus ensuring economic benefits for the country. Wapda has acknowledged the start of operations through the achievement of COD, meaning that the plant has met all the requirements of its Power Purchase Agreement. Engro Energy Limited is Engro Corp's first initiative in the power sector of Pakistan and is the first power project under the 2002 policy based on foreign debt financing.-PR
It is still fossil feul. even the US is going the nuclear power plant route. pkland should get chinese cooperation and build nuclear power plants and we will have no problems about fossil fuels or water levels. but such foresight and integrity of character (for making correct decisions) is, perhaps, beyond the ruling (or rather ravaging) class of this country.
