Construction Updates from Suki Kinari Hydropower Project!

We're thrilled to share the latest progress from the 884MW Suki Kinari Hydropower Project, a monumental endeavor under the #CPEC initiative!

Under Construction Since Dec 2016:

Since breaking ground in December 2016, a dedicated team has been tirelessly working towards harnessing the immense potential of Suki Kinari's natural resources to power a brighter future for Pakistan.

Annual Energy: Over 3,000 GWh:

The SK Hydropower Station, located on the Kunha River in Mansehra, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, is set to impact Pakistan's energy supply.

When finished, it will provide 3.212 billion kilowatt hours of clean electricity each year, covering one-fifth of Pakistan's electricity needs.

This project focuses on energy and incorporates "engineering aesthetics," blending cultural heritage with beautiful design.

Historic Moment for Pakistan’s Energy Sector - 884MW Suki Kinari Hydropower Project (SKHPP)

Today, August 12, 2024, marks a monumental milestone as the first unit of the Suki Kinari Hydropower Project (SKHPP)—the largest CPEC hydropower project—officially connects to the grid for power generation!

This journey has been one of dedication and perseverance:

• May 25: The first unit successfully completed its dry commissioning test.
• June 16: Wet testing was completed.
• July 1: All electrical tests were finalized, paving the way for grid connection.


Once fully operational, SKHPP is set to generate a staggering 3.212 billion kWh of electricity annually, saving approximately 1.28 million tons of standard coal and reducing CO2 emissions by about 3.2 million tons each year. This project will provide clean, affordable electricity to over 1 million Pakistani households, fueling the nation’s growth and sustainability.
During its peak construction phase, the SKHPP created 6,600 jobs, significantly boosting local social and economic development.

Today, we celebrate not just a technical achievement but a leap forward in Pakistan’s journey toward a sustainable energy future.

ISLAMABAD - On August 12, the first unit of Pakistan's Suki Kinari (SK) Hydropower Station successfully achieved synchronization and began generating power. This significant milestone represents the most crucial step toward the Commercial Operation Date (COD) of Energy China’s largest overseas hydropower project.

As one of the flagship projects under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and a key priority of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), the SK Hydropower Station is equipped with four impulse turbine units, boasting a total installed capacity of 884MW. The first unit, with a capacity of 221MW, has now commenced transmitting clean energy to local users via power transmission lines.

At the site, He Xiongfei, Chairman of SK Hydro (Private) Limited, emphasized that the project has entered its critical final phase, thanks to the collaborative efforts of all involved stakeholders and team members. He further noted that the successful synchronization and power generation of the first unit signified the project’s imminent achievement of COD.

Expecting to achieve COD soon, the S K Hydropower Station is estimated to generate up to 3.212 billion KWH of electricity annually after being put into operation and provide affordable clean electricity to more than 1 million households in Pakistan. It is of positive and far-reaching significance to Pakistan’s effort in adjusting its electric power energy structure, easing the contradiction between supply and demand, and promoting the transformation of infrastructure and economic development.

Earlier, on August 7, 2024, the double-circuit energization of the ADB-401A 500kV Transmission Line from SK Hydro Power Station to the Neelum Jhelum Interconnection Point was successfully completed, marking a major achievement in providing back feed supply to the Suki Kinari Hydro Power Station.
