[Kabira]

Two power plants of 1320 Megawatts would be installed in Gaddani area of Balochistan at a cost of two billion dollars.

In this connection, a Memorandum of Understanding was signed between Balochistan Government, HUBCO Power Company and Chinese company, China Power International in Islamabad.

Chief Secretary Balochistan Saifullah Chatta and the Chief Executive Officer of the Chinese Company signed MoU on behalf of their respective countries.

Under the project, two power plants of 660 MWs each would be constructed at Gaddani. Balochistan Provincial Government would share three per cent cost of the project.

The project would be one from among of the major energy projects to be constructed under the CPEC which will prove as a landmark in the early progress and prosperity of Balochistan.

Another gallant step towards industrialization and making Pakistan a developed nation

Good development. Coal or gas plant?

Coal, imported most likely.

 

[Syed1.]

20 years down the line these same coal power plants that are being built to run on imported coal will be a huge burden for the Pakistani nation.

Imported coal, initially one plant was dropped but now the original plan seems intact.

Imported coal, initially one plant was dropped but now the original plan seems intact.

Original plan was 10x660MW plants in Giddani but China backed out. Now looks like they are going to build 2.

That was government's own GPP which is now defunct. This is HUBCO's own 2X660 power plants.

Coal power is the price of development in Pakistan.

Solar, Wave Power and Wind turbines are the best options for Pakistan.
Pakistan needs Solar technology with high efficiency.

Mass Produced Printable Solar Cells - BTF

Panasonic Reaches New Record in Solar Panel

Wave Power 5 times more than Wind Turbine, Swedish technology

Wave power, UK technology.

Floating Wind turbine technology from Japan.

Why use imported coal? Why are we not using thar coal?

Pakistan has no local fuel in sizable reserves...any fuel be it coal or gas..will always be imported in next 20 years..and only partial demand will be fulfilled from local exploration...

There are already tens of billions of dollars being put into clean energy as we speak.

We must stop these environmental unfriendly power plants which will cause pollution. Must build Gas or wind/ solar etc
