No sigh of relief for the people of Pakistan as the ongoing power crisis has intensified even further with the surging of load shedding at 11 to 18 hours in many areas, including the Federal Capital Islamabad. Most of the small factories have been shut down due to unavailability of electricity and low gas pressure.
Meanwhile, a private news channel reported that the thermal powerhouses have testified an abject cut in the electricity generation, after a decline in hydel generation, worsening the electricity shortfall to 4000 megawatt per day. Pepco officials were noticed to have claimed generation of 9000 megawatt of electricity through making operational all Independent Power Producers (IPPs) but merely, around 7500 megawatt electricity could be generated through them so far, whereas the overall demand lingers around 11,500 megawatt, sources said.
