Power Supply Situation of City Improves with Increased Supply from National Grid

Karachi: power supply in Karachi improved after supply from the national grid was enhanced.

Following a nationwide shortfall of electricity due to insufficient fuel availability, power supply from the national grid to Karachi had been curtailed by 300 MW. However the supply has been increased to 1000 MW which KE has begun diverting to its consumers.

While many areas of the city continued receiving uninterrupted electricity, the additional supply has enabled KE to reduce the duration of load management in areas with high losses by 1.5 hours

“We appreciate the additional supply which is enabling us to facilitate our consumers. We continue to monitor the situation and Remain committed to supporting our customers” said KE’s Spokesperson.

Beside these measures, the utility requested consumers to play their part in reducing demand through conservative use of electricity especially during the hours leading up to Sehri and Iftari timings.
