KARACHI: K-Electric (KE) has energised a dedicated 12 megawatt (MW) grid along with a dedicated 132kV distribution system to facilitate Getz Pharma’s new manufacturing/production facility in Korangi industrial area, a statement said on Thursday.
The ceremony was attended by Khalid Mahmood, MD & CEO Getz Pharma and Moonis Alvi, CEO KE along with their respective teams.
