Karachiites to face load shedding as K-electric fails to meet demand
PSO and SSG are being contacted to meet the demand of oil and gas: K-Electric
KARACHI (Dunya News) – The demand of electricity has reached 3200 MW as the heat intensity increases in coastal city of Pakistan.
According to a statement of spokes person of K-Electric, load management would be necessary if short fall remains above 200 MW. It said the demand of furnace oil and gas has increased due to increase in electricity load but difficulties are being faced due to lesser supply of oil and gas.
It further said PSO and SSG are being contacted to meet the demand of oil and gas.
K-Electric spokes said 60 MW deficiency is due to closure of KANUP IPP while power production from wind corridor is negligible due to lower pressure of air.
