Govt revives over 134 RE projects of 4,000MW

Author: Agencies

The incumbent government revived more than 134 Renewable Energy Projects having cumulative capacity of 4,000MW, which had abolished by the previous government of Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N). According to sources, the PML-N government had abolished more than 134 RE projects to make a quick buck through the ‘LNG train,’ creating opportunities for loot and plunder of the national wealth. However, they said Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) led government after coming into power revived all these projects and brought a new RE policy, under which inexpensive electricity was being produced. They said the PML-N government gave the solar projects’ tariff of Rs23-24 per unit, which the incumbent government brought down to Rs6.5 per unit within the period of one year.
