Local and reliable
June 28, 2025
When the world faces fuel shortages and price hikes, Pakistan’s power sector stumbles, exposing just how fragile our energy system is. Now, with geopolitical tensions rising, global energy markets face even more uncertainty.
Some reports claim that converting just one major power plant from imported to local Thar coal could shield Pakistan from such volatility, guaranteeing reliable, domestic fuel supply. With over 180 billion tonnes of local coal, Pakistan has the means to ensure long-term resilience in its energy system. Prioritising local coal makes economic sense and is crucial for our strategic survival.
