Fourth extension to the Tarbela Hydropower Project hugely increased generating capacity, helping to alleviate outages and support the country’s social and economic development.

Hydropower supplies about one third of Pakistan’s electricity, and Tarbela, which boasts the world’s largest rock-filled dam, is expanding to increase its generating capacity. The fourth extension to the plant in north-west Pakistan adds 1410 MW of power, raising total generating capacity to 4888 MW.

Tarbela 4 was inaugurated in March 2018. The fifth and final extension has already been commenced and very soon will be in full swing .

When complete, Tarbela’s total generating capacity will be 6298 MW, supplying 3.84 bn kWh of electricity to the national grid each year.

that italian company imprachilo did a magnificent job
it was time we still weren’t going down on quality
now with advent of corruption and chinese they have opened up venues for cheap works and low shitt quality
i guess there should be a ban on national projects being given to anything less then europians
Depends which Chinese company you hire. China produces original Apple products, other Chinese companies make 50 Fake copy the same iPhone.

Politicians and govt can do their due diligence and hire a proper company or eat kick backs and hire a cheap company with no experience.

Dear please correct your sentence
'given by the Americans'. Nothing was given free in charity. We paid in hard earned money and our labor worked on it. Americans were not giving you charity.
Just like cpec came your leaders start calling it a gift from China. I hope China would make a charity of 60 billion dollars very often. But they were not gifts but deals badly negotiated in favour of China. Sadly. Now things have reversed at least. We need Chinese infrastructure but that is more beneficial to Pakistanis and Chinese should prosper too mot should be on equal basis.
 
These big dams are great but the actual progress and freedom will be installing micro hydel power which Pakistan has the potential to exploit within the existing infrastructure like the canal system for energy needs and above all it can make Pakistan independent from the grid system for rural areas!

these startups from Chile have done it by creating a small micro hydel power plant that has Pakistan written all over it. The canal system of Pakistan should be generating electricity in summer as the demand is highest in summer along with the monsoon season.


This small hydel power plant is capable of 15kW of electricity and multiply this system across the country and you can have more power generation at small level that is not stressing the environment.



this is a great example of it working in Indonesian Jungle
