Diamer-Bhasha Dam: Cableway Bridge-2 was made operational to speed-up the transportation of heavy machinery and construction materials across the Indus River.

This cableway bridge is 205 meters long and consists of a six-foot carriageway. The cableway bridge is capable of carrying a total weight of 80 tons.

Additional Chief Engineer Diamer-Bhasha Dam Project Fakhr Jahan, engineers and officials of Power China were present during the opening of the bridge.

On March 25, Chairman WAPDA Lieutenant General (retd) Muzammil Hussain had inaugurated the newly constructed Cableway Bridge-3 on the Indus River.

The cable way bridge-1 will also be made operational soon.

Diamer Basha Dam is set to have a gross water storage capacity of 8.1 MAF to irrigate 1.23 million acres of additional land. With installed power generation capacity of 4500 MW, the project will provide more than 18 billion units per annum to the National Grid.

The integral withstand voltage test of the first generator stator for Karot Hydropower Project has passed.

Three-phase four-branch star connection mode adopted for stator windings. The double-layer strip wave winding performed using an epoxy mica insulation system with class F insulation.

The smoothly completion of this important task laid down a solid foundation for the rotor hoisting of first unit in May 2021.

′′ Carbon emissions from Sahiwal Cole Power Plant is zero ′′

Cool fired power plants operated under Chinese companies in Pakistan are working on zero carbon emissions.

Sahiwal Cole Power Plant has made it very low even zero carbon emissions possible.

The Sahiwal project is involved in green coal-operated power projects with its high performance and carbon emissions that have met world standard. The project is built on the style of Tianjin IGCC power station,

This project uses various devices and technologies for carbon dioxide reduction which is then stored as industrial raw materials
