How to deliver inexpensive and abundant electricity to Pakistan?
How to unshackle the consumer from crushing capacity charges?
How to reduce purported ‘theft’ & subsidies?
How to reduce expensive electricity and increase less expensive electricity?

The electricity bill is a summary of historically poor governance.
Fed govt collects bills in areas where its capacity is better from Islamabad to Multan.
Rest is a deep pit of theft and losses, precisely in areas where writ of state is feeble.

A comprehensive commentary on what is plaguing Pakistan's Power Sector by Sir @kdastgirkhan The article is rich in policy directions the present government can take to help tackle the challenges faced by the sector. https://t.co/687cGsT3e2
Cannot agree more Sir @AmjadHafeez19 AMI will be a game changer for Pakistan's Power Sector : allowing real-time monitoring and supervision. Sir @kdastgirkhan kudos to you for taking such a step!!
Step towards digitalisation of electricity supply chain. Advanced Metering Infrastructure ( AMI) starts in Rawalpindi . 870K consumers will get AMIs , 30% of IESCO consumers. It will revolutionise the distribution sector of electricity. @kdastgirkhan Kudos!
ایجوکیشن، ہیلتھ اور پولیس کے چار مشترکہ مسائل ہیں
1. They are under-financed
2. HR is under-paid
3. HR is under-trained
4. HR is under-staffed
All four flow out of first one.
Fund them. Budget them sufficiently. See the miracles.
1. Domestic consumers <200 units consume 8% of electricity
2. This 8% exclusion from National Grid will offset expensive RFO plants that don't have capacity component
anymore
3. It will take off subsidy burden from National Exchequer
Had the honor of working under Sir @kdastgirkhan! I can vouch for the fact that he was caring and understanding towards anyone who came to his office with issues. He not only listened to their issues but also made sure that proper follow-up z done till resoltn. A GEM OF A PERSON!
خرم دستگیر خان اس ہستی کا نام ہے جس کو سب سے پہلے اپنے والدین کی دعائیں اور اس کے بعد نہ صرف گجرانوالہ کے بلکہ پورے پاکستان کے غریبوں کی دعائیں ہیں۔

Please update yourself
63% of our electricity is from local fuel
18% is from Nuclear
That makes 81% electricity from cheaper & local sources.
Actual issue is dollar pegging of its Capacity Purchase Price. That's why I ask for Capacity Payments spreading & new pants from PSDP
Capacity payments are just as you have purchased a car on Bank loan and pay them monthly fixed amount whether you use it 100% of the time or don't use it. Or you rent a car on monthly rent. You pay for petrol driver , maintenance & driver etc separately when you use it.
