The CPEC has also become a source of coordination for developing energy related projects through indigenous energy resources such as coal, hydro and renewable sources. Energy imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and coal along with utilization of domestic resources like construction of Thar coal mines, hydro power stations, nuclear power plants, as well as several solar and wind farms will reduce the country’s reliance on oil and improve the energy mix.
In the backdrop of such pressing needs to maximize power generation capacity, Mizab Group has also ventured into power generation with special focus on hydro power. Currently, hydro power accounts for 30% share in electricity generation. This leaves enormous scope for investors to pour their resources into hydro power generation.
