KE & Engro To Set Up Karachi’s First Garbage-to-Electricity Plant

In order to reduce the climate change impacts by converting Karachi’s municipal solid waste into an indigenous and renewable resource of energy, K-Electric and Engro Energy have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to develop a 50MW Solid Waste to Energy Plant at an estimated cost of US$ 175 million.

The MoU was signed by Moonis Alvi, CEO KE and Ahsan Zafar Syed, CEO Engro Energy at KE’s head office.

Through the project, Karachi’s municipal solid waste will be reduced by 3,000 tons per day to generate electricity, which will play a key role in addressing the municipality’s waste issue and simultaneously contribute in meeting the city’s growing power needs
